Charities
"knowledgeable and approachable" (Legal 500, 2008)
Charities and other voluntary sector organisations are rarely immune from the legislative environment within which businesses operate. They require specialist advice, not only in charity law, but also in commercial matters, property, employment law, intellectual property, tax and dispute resolution. Our Charity Law Group has been actively involved in the voluntary sector for many years and advises some of the UK's most well known charities as well as smaller and local charities on a broad range of legal issues. Equally, we frequently advise clients in the corporate sector on their dealings with charities and similar institutions. The group comprises a highly skilled and enthusiastic team of lawyers, dedicated to providing a top quality, personal and cost-effective service.
