Charity Law
Charities have been experiencing significant challenges over the last few years –
- A new system of regulation and governance imposed by the Charities Act 2006
- Financial constraints arising from the economic downturn – reducing sources of funding – from individual donors, government and other funding
- Difficulties in finding and engaging persons who are willing to devote their time and energies to the Charity but at the same time assume a level of personal risk
In many respects Charities are facing similar problems to those encountered by businesses and therefore have similar requirements for legal advice and assistance.
However because of the Charities Act, Charities have special needs which can only be provided by solicitors like Band Hatton LLP – by acting for a large number of local charities – large and small – we have developed a substantial amount of experience and expertise in the practical and legal needs of Charities as recognised by Legal 500.
We can assist with –
- The formation and registration of Charities
- Conversion of Charities to companies limited by guarantee
- Statutory compliance
- Mergers and winding up
