"What do you call a lawyer who helps people share, cooperate, barter, foster local economies, and build sustainable communities? That sounds like the beginning of a lawyer joke, but actually, it's the beginning of new field of law practice..." Janelle Orsi

She is co-author of "The Sharing Solution: How to Save Money, Simplify Your Life & Build Community" (Nolo Press 2009). Janelle earned her J.D. from the UC Berkeley School of Law.
The <http://www.sustainableeconomieslawcenter.org/>Sustainable Economies Law Center (SELC), facilitates the growth of more sustainable and localized economies through education, research, and advocacy to support practices such as barter, sharing, cooperatives, urban agriculture, shared housing, local currencies, community-supported enterprises, and local investing.
