Low Income Entrepreneurs

Silicon Valley’s Michael Wiley and Nicole Nemirofsky have represented a variety of pro bono clients through Legal Services for Entrepreneurs (LSE), which is an economic justice project of the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights.  LSE provides free business legal services to low income individuals, including women and persons of color, who want to start or develop for-profit businesses and certain for-profit businesses committed to community economic development.  Among the many activities we have helped with are: assisting in the pursuit of a new business venture; negotiating distribution agreements between an artist and an online distributor; and assisting Spanish-speaking clients in the formation of an LLC.
