Small business owners are invited to attend a free corporate legal clinic on Friday, March 5, 2010, sponsored by the Durham County Bar Association, North Carolina Lawyers for Entrepreneurs Assistance Project (NC LEAP) and the Small Business Center at Durham Technical Community College. Receive vital information concerning business start-up; contracts; employment matters; purchase and sale of a business; and protecting your company’s trademarks, copyrights, trade secrets and other intellectual property.

The clinic will be held at the Small Business Center, SOUTHBank Building, 400 W Main St, Suite 101, Durham, NC 27701, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Space is limited. Please call for an appointment, (919) 686-3448.

Walk-ins are accepted, but plan to arrive early to fill in registration documents. Clients will be scheduled in groups for one-hour slots and will be able to talk individually to local attorneys for up to 30 minutes on a first-come, first-served basis. Priority will be given to registrants over walk-ins.

The clinic is held in conjunction with the North Carolina Bar Association’s 4ALL campaign, a day of public service by North Carolina attorneys who will donate time to helping low-income residents of North Carolina.

NC LEAP assists low-wealth entrepreneurs with their legal needs in starting or expanding their businesses through pro bono service by North Carolina business and transactional lawyers. Services range from basic transactional legal needs as struggling entrepreneurs strive to establish their business and create jobs, to potential long term client-counselor relations as their businesses grow.

The Durham Technical Community College Small Business Center is a state funded organization which is part of the Small Business Center Network of North Carolina. The Small Business Center (SBC) provides small business owners with information they need for success, including advice on marketing, sales, bookkeeping, and management.
