Legal Services
Complex Business Transactions
The experts at The Law Firm for Non-Profits provide support for more than legal matters. Recognizing that every transaction a non-profit enters into must comply with tax and corporate (non-profit) law, we guide transactions (and the clients behind them) to ensure they stay compliant with IRS requirements. With our business expertise and knowledge of the non-profit business world, we also help make sure our legal solutions are practical.
We support and guide people and non-profits in these areas:
- Sales and mergers of non-profit assets
- Conversions of non-profits to for-profits and vice-versa
- Establishment of for-profit subsidiaries
- Joint ventures with for-profit businesses structured to avoid jeopardizing the non-profit’s tax-exempt status
- Corporate sponsorships and “qualified sponsorship payments”
- Donor-advised funds
- Fiscal sponsorship
- Supporting organizations
- Arranging and developing strategic alliances
- Permissible lobbying activity and avoiding unlawful campaign activity
