Not-for-Profit

Creative problem solvers facilitating seamless transactions.

Farrell Fritz attorneys have an uncommon depth of experience assisting not-for-profit organizations, such as private foundations and public charities, in all stages and aspects of their operations. Our ability to counsel the not-for-profit sector is enhanced by our attorneys, who serve as members of the board of directors of many not-for-profit organizations, including chairing such organizations. Many attorneys also have prior real-world business experience or advanced degrees in business, accounting, tax, and urban planning.

The breadth and depth of our collective experience allow us to advise many of this region’s largest and most substantial not-for-profit organizations including hospitals and healthcare entities, religious organizations, and community service entities. They seek our counsel on the myriad of issues that may arise in specific transactions or in connection with day-to-day activities, such as:

• Corporate structure
• Mergers
• Joint ventures
• Compensation
• Employment
• Dissolutions
• Real estate
• Tax planning

We also have counseled not-for-profits on issues related to excise taxes and the maintenance of their not-for-profit status, including private inurement and excess benefit transactions. We differentiate ourselves as creative problem solvers who facilitate transactions with a team approach that is seamless from our client’s perspective.
