Specialist and supportive advice for charities
Vaughan Jones, Head of Corporate
Business
Charity and Not-for-Profit
We act for a range of charitable and not-for-profit clients from national charities to small community interest companies.
Our specialist team of solicitors offers advice across the spectrum of charity and not-for-profit law. We aim to build relationships with our clients to facilitate an in-depth understanding of their charitable goals and what is important to them.
Charities have to navigate an increasingly complex, evolving regulatory regime. They are often in an uncertain funding environment and face competition both from other charities and also commercial entities. We aim to develop lasting, trusted relationships with our charity clients to help guide them through the legal challenges.
We support charity clients with:
- Commercial contracts
- Governance issues
- Fundraising queries
- Compliance and risk management
- Property transactions
We also have the advantage of being able to call on expertise from colleagues across Burnetts' other specialist teams to advise where required.
