Charities and Philanthropy

We advise charity trustees on legal obligations and responsibilities whether you have an existing charitable organisation and need advice on dealing with the Charity Commission, or whether you are starting a charity, and require guidance on the most efficient structures and administration.

Our expert legal team can help your charity with:

• advice on governance
• mergers, amalgamations, and incorporation of several charities
• commercial issues including tax and charitable giving, fundraising and investment
• setting up and running a family-managed charity
• contracts and agreements related to employment, intellectual property
• resolving complex disputes.

Other specialists at Stoke White can also assist when a deceased estate (with charitable beneficiaries) is disputed.
