The grant will allow the Clinic to continue to pursue justice for homeowners who've been defrauded out of their homes by "foreclosure rescue specialists."</p><separator></separator><p>Despite its affiliation with ASU, the Clinic receives no state money to fund client-related expenses, which may include filing, service and witness fees, expert witness expenses and the costs of taking depositions.
