Summary/Abstract: Legal clinics are emerging as an innovative form of legal education that combines academic knowledge with practical experience and social engagement. This article explores the role of legal clinics in Bulgaria as a tool for developing professional skills among law students and as a mechanism for ensuring access to justice for vulnerable groups. The main models of clinical training, the institutional framework and the interaction with the non-governmental sector are analyzed. Special attention is paid to the challenges related to the lack of regulatory framework, limited resources and the need for sustainable integration into university programs. In conclusion, recommendations are offered for the development of a network of legal clinics in Bulgaria through a multidisciplinary approach, partnerships and digitalization.
