OVERVIEW: Since the early 1970s, ASUO Student Legal Services has proudly provided legal services and promoted legal awareness for the benefit of University of Oregon students. This website is an example of our commitment to reaching as many students as possible, making them aware of laws that may impact their daily lives, and achieving some of our key goals, including the retention and education of OR students. The Oregon State Bar (OSB) was founded in 1935 by the Oregon Legislature to license and discipline lawyers, regulate legal practice, and provide a variety of services to member lawyers and the public. The Bar Association is a public corporation and an instrument of the Oregon Department of the Judiciary.
It is funded entirely by membership and program fees and receives no financial support in the form of taxpayer money from the general state fund. Membership is mandatory for attorneys who wish to practice law in Oregon. While we hope you`ll never get into legal trouble on campus, sometimes things happen. ASUO Legal Services is a student-funded office that provides legal advice and representation to UO students. Legal Services specializes in topics you might have as a student, such as motor vehicle accidents and disputes between landlords. To see a lawyer, simply make an appointment.
