Few experiences are more daunting for a non-profit than an IRS or Attorney General audit. In many cases, however, the risk of an investigation can be reduced through sound legal guidance that helps boards and executives stay aligned with applicable laws and regulations. At The Law Firm for Non-Profits, we help clients navigate the complex regulatory landscape and implement practices that promote strong governance and compliance.
Simply put, we partner with non-profits to model best practices and operate with confidence. And in the rare event that an organization is audited by a state or federal regulator, we step in to manage the process, ease the burden, and see it through to resolution. Over the past three decades, we have successfully handled dozens of audits and regulatory investigations on behalf of our clients.
We support and guide non-profits in a wide range of regulatory matters overseen by the IRS and states’ Attorneys General, including:
- Audits;
- Reviews of tax returns;
- Dissolutions and insolvencies;
- Property tax exemptions;
- Charitable solicitation and fundraising registrations across the U.S.;
- Meeting public support tests;
- Corporate sponsorships; and
- Permissible lobbying activity and political activity.
