BLIP Clinic
The BLIP Clinic (Brooklyn Law Incubator and Policy) is a technology-oriented clinical program at Brooklyn Law School (BLS) located in the New York City neighborhood of Brooklyn Heights in the downtown area of Brooklyn. BLIP provides pro bono legal services to startup technology, communications, and media companies. Started in 2008, BLIP has assisted well over 500 clients with various legal and business needs. The clinic also undertakes a number of policy initiatives sparked by new legal challenges presented by their clients. ==History and overview== BLIP was founded in 2008 by professor Jonathan Askin as one of BLS’s clinical program offerings. Recognizing the disconnect between the law and new technologies, as well as the rapid growth of the NYC startup community, Askin founded the clinic to provide students with training in the unique issues facing technology and media startups. Every semester, interested students apply to the BLIP Clinic each semester, and a select group of students are invited to participate. Students in BLIP come from diverse backgrounds in related fields of the law,〔 and all share a commitment to making a difference in the community both on a policy and a practical level. The BLIP Clinic accepts more students, often referred to as "BLIPicians", than any other clinical program at BLS. As part of the program, students are required to attend a weekly seminar where they discuss legal issues and policy initiatives that affect existing and potential clients, host guest lecturers in the startup, legal and/or tech communities (CITE), and attempt to find viable solutions within the bounds of the law.〔 In addition to the traditional classroom instruction, the clinic functions as a tech-oriented law firm,〔 where the student BLIPicians provide free representation to emerging tech clients with a variety of legal needs, often in the areas of corporate formation, Intellectual Property protection, and contracts.
