Fair Housing Law covers the federal Fair Housing Act and other federal and state statutes which prohibit discrimination in the sale, rental and financing of homes.  These statutes prohibit discrimination based on race, sex, national origin, familial status, disability or other protected class.  Cleveland-Marshall's Fair Housing Law Clinic represents plaintiffs with discrimination claims. 

General Hint: Add the Housing Law tab in Westlaw for quick access to treatises, statutes, regulations, agency manuals and guidance.
