Abstract
Some twenty years after they were first established in Israel, legal clinics have become an integral part of an Israeli legal education, operating in every law school in the country. While they embody the aims of higher education as defined by UNESCO(generating knowledge, professional training, service to society, and social critique),legal clinics do not, as yet, enjoy “equal citizenship” in law schools. This article examines regulation processes that have taken place in the past five years concerning the legal clinics and argues that they did not do enough to ensure that legal clinics will thrive an achieve their goals. It then puts forward guidelines for optimal regulation of legal clinics.
