IPLS is hosting an information session on the organization and IP Law.

Participating law firms will provide a short lecture about a topic of business law. Law students are encouraged to attend and learn about that law firm and its business law practice. Lunch will be provided, with options for those with dietary restrictions, and RSVP is required. Membership in TBLS is not required.

This event is part of the Justice Center initiative designed to support students whose lived experiences intersect with the legal systems they aspire to challenge in their careers. For example, students who have themselves or had family members become entangled in the criminal legal system and are interested in public defense work; immigrant students or students who are the children or family members of immigrants seeking to challenge the immigration system; and low-income students seeking to challenge laws and policies that further marginalize poor people, such as predatory lending, cash bail, etc.

EPI gatherings serve as a space for dialogue, mentorship, and resource-sharing tailored to the needs and strengths of students whose work as public interest law students and future attorneys may directly relate to their own lived experiences or those of their loved ones.

Please RSVP by noon on Friday, September 13th: https://utexas.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_5A15NALbEAOfqhU
