Our solicitors are passionate about community and many have spent decades dedicating their personal time to sitting on boards and furthering the objects of various not-for-profit or for-purpose groups.

​

The experienced lawyers in our not-for-profit practice work with clients in the aged care industry, charities, clubs, foundations, hospitals, industry groups, business community, member-based organisations and educational organisations.

 

Our solicitors are extremely familiar with the challenges facing this sector including managing stakeholder relations, regulatory change and compliance, and meeting member expectations – all things that need to be managed with often limited resources.

 

We can help you with:

​

• Establishing a new not-for-profit or charity

• Ensuring you have the right structure

• Effective governance including policy development

• Amendments to Rules or Constitutions

• Mergers and amalgamations

• Applying for, obtaining and maintaining endorsements and registrations

• ACNC governance standards
