LEGL 668 Legal Aspects of Entrepreneurship (2)

In this course, students will examine the nature of entrepreneurship from a legal perspective. During the course, students examine the linkages between entrepreneurship and the law and how to provide effective legal representation to small business entrepreneurs on transactional and regulatory matters. Students will learn the essential legal frameworks for success in new venture creation, intellectual property protection, corporate governance, and contracts. Also, students will develop an understanding of the potential consequences of failure to address these issues. Topics will include legal issues related to choice of corporate entity, venture capital, financing the venture, intellectual property, obligations in relation to financial statements, and regulatory and tax issues.
