Non-Profit Entities

The lawyers at Monaghan P.C. help non-profit clients with every important issue related to starting a non-profit organization, and securing and maintaining their tax exemptions, including organizational structure, regulatory compliance, and corporate governance issues that involve fiduciary duties and officer-director liability. Our experience with non-profit entities addresses such specialized issues as the conversion of healthcare providers from non-profit to for-profit status, the operation of for-profit subsidiaries, the application of charitable trust law, and the proper structure and responsibilities of boards and committees, and establishing family private foundations. We also provide litigation representation if the need arises.

There are many issues that arise while operating a non-profit organization. Good legal counsel is essential for a successful tax-exempt entity. This requires a lawyer who has detailed information and knowledge about the goals and objectives and purpose of the non-profit organization. There are restrictions on the activities of tax-exempt organizations that, if violated, can lead to the revocation of the tax-exempt status and potential individual liability.

At Monaghan P.C., we value working with non-profit organizations and their management team. We make every effort to provide knowledgeable and responsive service at a reasonable cost.
