\nMembers of the military who lost homes to foreclosure while deployed. A grandmother confined to the bedroom of her own house by a drug-using relative. A veteran ravaged by post-traumatic stress syndrome denied benefits after receiving a dishonorable discharge.<\/p>\n

These are some of the sorts of cases handled pro bono, or free of charge, for local residents and others by Chapman University\u2019s
\nMilitary and Veterans\u2019 Law Institute<\/a>
\nand the
\nAlona Cortese Elder Law Center<\/a>
\n, two of more than a half-dozen institutes and clinics that offer assistance from staff lawyers and law students at the
\nFowler School of Law<\/a>
\nto those unable to afford the legal help they need.<\/p>\n

Housed in restored bungalows on the edges of campus, the centers help solve problems for neighbors in Orange and beyond.<\/p>\n

The Military and Veterans\u2019 Law Institute is dedicated to being a resource for veterans in the City of Orange and beyond. The team there includes, from left: Michael Victoria, legal intern; Kyndra Rotunda, professor and executive director of the institute; and Charles Cussalli, administrative assistant.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Kale Mosley, an Air Force combat pilot, placed a call at 2 a.m. from the middle of the Iraqi desert. He wanted to talk to Kyndra Rotunda, director of the Military and Veterans Law Institute, after learning on the day he was deployed he would be terminated shy of his 20-year pension eligibility in a measure designed to save the cost of his retirement.<\/p>\n

After being guided through the maze of military bureaucracy by Rotunda and Chapman law graduate Joshua Flynn-Brown (B.A. \u201907, J.D. \u201911) before they handed off the case to a large firm, Mosley is one of 17 veterans who have taken their claim to federal court. It\u2019s a case that has been featured in
\nTime<\/em>
\nmagazine as well as the
\nWall Street Journal<\/em>
\n, in an op-ed penned by Flynn-Brown and Rotunda. The pair even advocated for a bill on the veterans\u2019 behalf that was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives but not passed.<\/p>\n

\u201cSome of the things she and Josh did, with the leverage she has on Capitol Hill and the media contacts, no way if we had gone anywhere else we could have gotten that,\u201d said Mosley, who lives in Kansas. \u201cThat was 100 percent the Chapman law clinic. No law firm could have pulled that off for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

The elder law clinic typically handles lower profile cases, but they are of great importance to the lives of individuals and families.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe dynamics of most elder situations are like a Gordian knot,\u201d said Sandra Skahen, J.D., an associate clinical professor of Law who assists Kurt Eggert, J.D., a professor of Law and director of the Alona Cortese Elder Law Center. \u201cThere are so many factors to take into consideration in terms of the best outcome for the client.\u201d<\/p>\n

Among the needs the elder law clinic assists with are simple wills and healthcare directives, conservatorships, elder abuse restraining orders and income maintenance, such as debt disputes or Social Security issues.<\/p>\n

\u201cI probably get two or three phone calls a week where they say their loved one has suffered a catastrophic fill-in-the-blank or stroke,\u201d Skahen said. \u201cThe patient can\u2019t make healthcare decisions and the hospital won\u2019t let them make decisions for them. They always end with, \u2018I never thought this would happen to me.\u2019 Just a few hours of planning saves literally months in the court getting a conservatorship.\u201d<\/p>\n
