Clinical legal education has become relevant in the training of lawyers in law schools around the world. In particular, the clinical element can be used to balance the aims of legal education: to educate trained and competent lawyers, valuable professionals and good citizens. In this paper, from experiences at universities around the world and recently in Spain, some suggestions are explored for inclusion in the learning process of lawyers and to promote future sustainability.
