Our attorneys have a strong commitment to promoting justice and building social capital through the charitable sector. At the forefront of serving not-for-profit and charitable organizations, we represent numerous civic, religious, and educational institutions, community foundations (both local community and faith community based) and private foundations. We provide valuable corporate, governance and tax advice and counsel from the start of an organization’s life through incorporation and maturation and, at times, to its end through merger or termination. We prepare applications for exemption from income tax, craft appropriate governing documents and advise on updates and changes to governing documents over time.

We regularly advise on tax issues and donor tax planning and prepare charitable organization tax returns and corporate reports. We strategize with charitable organizations regarding responses to risk management and donor issues. We also consult on real estate matters such as property tax exemptions, cost-sharing arrangements and other issues.
