Startup Law Initiative at Berkeley Law

Through the Startup Law Initiative (SLI), first year law students at Berkeley Law work with local startup founders to create and file formation documents, allowing entrepreneurs to overcome otherwise cost preventative barriers to incorporation. Students’ work includes research, client intake, interviews, drafting and filing documents (e.g., articles of incorporation), and interactions with clients and supervising attorneys. The business owners must meet income requirements to qualify for assistance.
