Non Profit Law

Did you know that if all the nonprofits in the world were a country, they would have the 5th largest economy in the world? Right after Germany. That’s impressive!

In fact, in the U.S., one out of every 10 working Americans work in the nonprofit sector. This makes it the third-largest employment industry in the country, behind only retail and manufacturing. Given the significant role of nonprofits in the global stage and in the U.S., it’s important to consider the role of the fastest-growing areas to impact the nonprofit sector, Donor Advised funds (“DAFs”).

We work with nonprofit organizations to incorporate and obtain their tax exempt status under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. There have been recent changes to obtaining 501(c)(3) status and we have worked with organizations in submitting successful applications on the simplified track by filing a 1023-EZ and the more rigorous 1023 application for larger organizations.

Nonprofits also face similar legal challenges to assure that they comply with business requirements and additional requirements to assure that they do not jeopardize their tax exempt status. As a law firm advising nonprofits, we work with nonprofit organizations to guide them through these issues.
