Conference Description:

The Georgia State College of Law is pleased to announce that we will be hosting the 5th annual Access to Justice Conference: Incubators, Residencies, Apprenticeships, and Non-profit Law Firms. The conference, primarily organized by the Incubator Consortium, is designed for people who are already involved in incubator or other post graduate programs for solo, small firm and non-profit practitioners, as well as for those who want to know more about how these programs work and how they contribute to enhancing social justice through improved access to law.

The conference will describe and advance the continued growth of post-graduate law programs and the new wave of affordable legal services for groups without access to legal resources. Along with the basics of creating and implementing incubator programs and non-profit law firms, the conference will address, among other topics, the impact on law school curricular reform; collaboration between bench, bar and academics; technology and delivery of legal services; evolution of lawyering role models; and access to justice for low and moderate means clients.
