<br><br>Hi all! Good to hear from you Praveen, and thanks for the intro! Matt and Eddan - great to e-meet you and to hear what you are doing! <div><br></div><div>One suggestion is to come to our workshop on worker-owned businesses in a few weeks, and sign up to take part in a follow-up advice clinic (which will happen on different evenings): <a href="http://thinkoutsidetheboss11-17.eventbrite.com/#" target="_blank">http://thinkoutsidetheboss11-17.eventbrite.com/#</a> Then you'll be able to sit and talk with a couple lawyers for an hour, one of whom might be me. </div>
<div><br></div><div>And normally I wouldn't refer people to my own law practice if they email me through my work at the Sustainable Economies Law Center, but LOL did come to me via my law practice (<a href="http://www.janelleorsi.com" target="_blank">www.janelleorsi.com</a>), and I sent them to SELC's free advice clinic. I do one time consultations for $200 (60-90 minutes), and my rates after that are around $75-$100 per hour if the client is a co-op or nonprofit. I can do consultations now, but may not be taking new clients until January, due to overload. A couple other lawyers you might explore working with are Jenny Kassan (<a href="http://www.k2-legal.com" target="_blank">www.k2-legal.com</a>), Ryan Janisse (<a href="http://www.ryanjanisselaw.com" target="_blank">www.ryanjanisselaw.com</a>) and Cameron Holland (<a href="http://www.cameronholland.com" target="_blank">www.cameronholland.com</a>).</div>

But I have also been working with a sister collective known as sudoroom that are looking into trying to figure out their up and coming legal structure. I don't know how busy you have been this autumn, but I wanted to make the introductions to Matt Senate and Edan Katz who are on point with getting all the legal setup. Matt, Eddan -- Janelle was able to help out lolspace with our issues (as well as a bunch of other co-op/collectives), and she may be able to help Sudoroom, particularly since we have very similar/parallel visions of community development, as well as how we operate. Not sure about timing / availability / cost, but you guys should strategically know each other at any rate :)<br>
<br>Love and Happy Halloween!<span><font color="#888888"><br>Praveen<br>
