Legal Services for Charities
We offer legal services for charities and currently advise more than 200 charities: ranging from small community organisations to large national ventures.
We work for many community regeneration organisations and are involved with charities utilising community-owned wind farms and hydro regeneration projects.
Our extensive experience in this area means we can offer considerable assistance to charitable organisations including:
- Banking/grant funding
- Complying with existing and forthcoming legislation
- Commercial property
- Governance
- Litigation
- Partnership working
- Setting up a charity (ensuring that their aims and objectives meet the charity and public benefit test as administered by the Office of the Scottish Charity Regulator)
- Setting up subsidiaries
- Trading queries
- Trust law
