Charities and Non-profit Organisations
We navigate the complexities of charity risk, law and regulation with professional expertise, unique tools and services, so you can focus on being a force for good.
Protecting your mission at every step
We provide expert legal guidance to charity members, charity company secretaries and boards of trustees on all aspects of charity-related issues, governance and regulatory requirements that span national and regional charities, as well as not-for-profit organisations.. No matter the size of your charity or organisation, our team of experienced solicitors can support you with corporate and commercial law, employment and volunteer issues, litigation matters and the legal side of property transactions.
We can also advise those who are trustees of a charity, who have specific responsibilities and require specialist guidance.
Stay compliant and on track
Charities or nonprofits that breach the law can face significant fines, and trustees risk being personally liable. Anyone found guilty of altering, suppressing, concealing or destroying documents requested by the Commission can receive an unlimited fine and/or up to two years in prison.
