VOLUNTEER SIGN-UP: In-person Small Business Brief Advice Legal Clinic

This pro bono opportunity is sponsored by the DC Bar.


The DC Bar Pro Bono Center is sponsoring a walk-in legal clinic for community-based entrepreneurs with general legal questions about their aspiring and existing small businesses.

The upcoming In-Person Clinic is scheduled for Wednesday, April 9, 2025, from 5 to 7:30 pm at CUA Columbus School of Law (3600 John McCormack Rd NE)

This is a brief advice clinic. Volunteers are not expected to provide ongoing representation. Malpractice insurance is provided.

Many of the clients are already receiving technical assistance from local small business technical assistance providers.

The following are examples of questions that might arise at the clinic:


  • How do I transition from operating as a sole proprietorship to a corporate or non-corporate business entity?
  • What is the difference between an employee and independent contractor?
  • How do I negotiate reasonable lease terms?


To those of you who are new to volunteering at the Small Business Clinics, you'll have an opportunity to work in tandem with veteran volunteers.


Volunteers register here: https://forms.office.com/r/JJJztYeWB0


Note: registration is directly through the DC Bar website, not APABA-DC.
