Did you get a law degree at Dartmouth? Are you looking for a job? Are you in need of legal services? Stop by 274 Franklin Street to learn more.

The Boston Business Journal describes the incubator’s mission:

“The University of Massachusetts School of Law Dartmouth has arrived on Boston’s legal scene, this week debuting a new venture in the Financial District that’s designed like a start-up incubator — but for lawyers to launch their careers…Called Justice Bridge, the center is located in basement space at 274 Franklin St. and it serves two purposes, first by employing graduates of UMass Dartmouth Law School and second by providing reduced-fee legal services for people who cannot afford the full fare of a Boston law firm but are able to pay something.”
