Federal Government Working With Northeastern To Help Local Entrepreneurs

BOSTON (CBS) - Law professors and students from Northeastern University will soon be offering free legal services to Boston-area entrepreneurs. The concept received funding from the U.S. Commerce Department.

Law professor Rashmi Dyal-Chand tells WBZ the school has been developing the idea, and working with many local groups, a rich network of community organizations that she's been working with for months now.

Professor Dyal Chand says many start-up companies fail when they can't afford legal services to meet regulations and other requirements.
