The Entrepreneurial Law Clinic (ELC) operates from September through April each academic year. The ELC provides law students with unique, practical experience in transactional law while offering valuable legal services without charge to startups that lack access to professional legal help. The Clinic’s clients include graduate students, professors, local entrepreneurs, and start-up companies. The ELC is not for companies that have already received a significant funding round from venture capital or angel investors.

Third-year Colorado Law students staff the Clinic during the academic year under the joint supervision of a full-time clinician and experienced attorneys from top law firms in Boulder and Denver. Students interact directly with clients to provide legal advice on a wide range of business-law issues including entity formation, intellectual property, employment, and contracts. By assisting entrepreneurs when they need help the most, the ELC provides Colorado Law students hands-on opportunities to make a difference in the community.
