The University of Colorado at Boulder Law School

Entrepreneurial Law Clinic

Thank you for your interest in the CU Entrepreneurial Law Clinic (“ELC”). The ELC resides within the School of Law's Entrepreneurial Law Center and has been providing transactional legal services for the formation and development of small businesses in Colorado since 2001.

The ELC serves two goals:

1. Provide students with a supervised, practical experience in transactional law; and
2. Offer valuable legal services to local entrepreneurs in need (generally those without significant funding such as access to traditional venture capital or angel investor sources).

In short, the ELC provides entrepreneurs with legal help while providing CU law students a hands-on opportunity to make a difference. The ELC does not charge for its services (although clients must pay for costs associated with ELC work, such as state filing fees for entity formation). In the case that ELC students cannot provide assistance, the ELC attempts to serve as a referral network to those in need of legal advice or services.
