Most legal clinics help people fill out forms. BLIP does that, and we also argue the questions the law hasn't answered yet, on behalf of the founders and creators building into that uncertainty.

A few examples. We filed a brief at the U.S. Supreme Court on whether an AI system can be named as the inventor on a patent. We argued to the Copyright Office on whether art made by AI can be protected at all. We've backed New York legislation to protect children's data online, and we've published work on domain-name theft, decentralized digital identity, and the shifting law around cannabis. Alongside that, we've represented more than 1,000 clients on the everyday legal work a young company needs, incorporation, trademarks, contracts, and licensing.

That's the point of a teaching law firm with a public-interest heart. Our student attorneys learn by doing real work, supervised by faculty who practiced at firms like Weil and Davis Polk, and our clients get serious representation without the serious bill.

If you're a founder or creator who can't yet afford counsel, that's who we're built for.

See if you qualify.
