| Charities have a privileged position
in English law. Muddle and ignorance of the law are at the
root of most official investigations into charities.
We deal with all aspects of charities and in particular can
advise on:
- the setting up and registration of charities including
whether the objects proposed are charitable and what form
a charity should take - trust, company or other legal entity
- the responsibilities and duties of trustee
- legitimate trading activities for charities or whether
a separate trading company is more appropriate
- scope and suitability of investment powers including
delegation of investment management
accounting procedures
- tax effective giving to charities
dealing with the Charity Commission including applications
for Schemes to extend the objects or increase administrative
powers
- Charity Commission Inquiries
All aspects of employment law including contracts of employment,
grievance, disciplinary termination and redundancy procedures
- buying and selling investment and functional properties
