MCEDSV - RISE Clinic

The Michigan Coalition to End Domestic and Sexual Violence (MCEDSV) has been on the forefront of demanding dignity for victims for more than forty years. Under the RISE Project, MCEDSV’s Survivor Law Clinic seeks to make crime victims’ rights more meaningful for all Michigan victims. The Clinic represents crime victims at the trial and appellate levels in state, tribal, or federal courts throughout Michigan. Attorneys from the Clinic can provide legal support to crime victims at all stages of a criminal case—from conferring with investigators and prosecutors, to attending and testifying at trial, to protecting rights throughout sentencing and parole processes. The Clinic will also support with civil legal needs related to victimization. All clients also benefit from our in-house trauma advocate, who can provide informal advocacy and emotional support throughout the process.
