charities and not-for-profit

The charities and not-for-profit team at Browne Jacobson provides specialist legal advice and services for organisations in the voluntary and not-for-profit sector. With a full and thorough understanding of this area, lawyers advise clients on sector specific regulations and legislation as well as delivering considered and sympathetic advice on all other legal issues.

The team recognises that these organisations have many of the same aspirations, objectives and problems as commercial ones and provides pragmatic, sensible solutions. Expert advice covers constitutional issues and governance, regulations and compliance, advice to trustees, trading, mergers, takeovers, joint ventures and the protection and exploitation of property and rights.

In addition to this experienced team, specialists from across the firm, including those working in the area of dispute resolution, can be drawn upon to ensure clients receive the best possible service. Whether establishing new charities and organisations or modernising existing ones, the team provides a bespoke service. Clients include housing associations, registered charities and numerous not-for-profit organisations.
