Description

Sharing economy attorneys must be prepared for clients to blow our minds with creative ideas for micro-lending, crowdfunding, community-based capital raising, community currencies, barter networks, and more. This workshop will walk through basic options for clients seeking to raise capital creatively, with particular attention to securities exemptions that are simple to use. We will also provide an overview of legal issues that arise in connection with alternative currencies and barter arrangements, including tax requirements, currency laws, money transmitter laws, wage and hour laws, and more. In addition, we will briefly discuss legal issues that arise in connection with lending circles, often known as tandas.

SELC will be hosting a happy hour event a couple blocks away in Berkeley immediately following this workshop. Please join us for that, too!

This activity has been approved for 2 units of MCLE credit

The workshop will be led by SELC's Executive Director Janelle Orsi, SELC's Policy Director Christina Oatfield, and SELC Fellow Caroline Lee. Read their bios here.

All proceeds from this workshop will benefit the Sustainable Economies Law Center.
