Emily Clark Cuellar, the content and outreach strategist for Oregon Law Help, a joint project among the Oregon State Bar, Oregon's state court system, legal aid organizations, and other nonprofit legal providers in Oregon, and managed by the Oregon State Bar Access to Justice Team.

With a background in civil litigation and access-to-justice work, Ms. Cuellar joined Oregon Law Help in 2026, where she develops and manages legal content and resources designed to help people better understand the law and navigate the legal system.
