The SLU School of Law has served as bar examination testing center for 2 years as of the present time serving not only the law students and bar takers of the city but also of Northern Luzon in general.

According to the council, the designation of the SLU School of Law as a testing center paved the way for the city’s opportunity to lend valuable assistance and contribution to the growth of future lawyers and legal officers.
The SLU School of Law also hosts the Chief Justice Manuel V. Moran Community Legal Assistance Office (CJ Moran CLAO) which is the official legal aid office of the school and is the first legal aid office established north of Manila.
The CJ Moran CLAO has actively championed the causes of the poor, marginalized, and indigent sectors of the community of the city and Northern Luzon by actively conducting information seminars across different barangays in the city, empowering alternative dispute resolution mechanisms among communities and providing legal aide, legal assistance, and free notarization services to the constituents of the city.
The Legal Education Board of the Philippines conferred to the SLU School of Law various awards during the legal education summit held recently such as the Chief Alexander G. Gesmundo Virtual Legal Advocate Award; CLEP Community Advocate Award and the Pioneer law Student Practitioner Award.
The council said the SLU School of Law has raised the bar in the conduct of legal aid to ensure access to justice for everyone regardless of economic or social positions, and has given the city residents an adequate, competent, and cost-free space for the redress of the community members’ grievances. -- Dexter A.
