Margo Schlanger

Margo Schlanger has been living and breathing access to justice for her entire career. As a professor of constitutional and civil rights law at the University of Michigan Law School, she inspires students to work outside their casebooks and contribute to the community at large. To that end, Margo founded the Civil Rights Litigation Clearinghouse, a free database of documents, including case summaries written by law students, related to civil rights litigation. The site has become a godsend for members of the public, both experienced researchers and novices, because it makes information free and organized in a user-friendly format. On top of it all, she has served as counsel in several notable civil rights cases, such as Hamama v. Adducci, a class action case to ensure due process for Iraqi nationals slated for deportation.
