Nonprofits向けLegal専門家
Nonprofits face legal questions that rarely come up in for-profit contexts: 501(c)(3) formation and exemption applications, unrelated business income rules, private foundation restrictions, and governance requirements that protect the organization's tax-exempt status. A nonprofit attorney prevents the kind of structural mistakes that can cost exemption years after formation.
Nonprofitsの共通課題
- Navigating the IRS Form 1023 or 1023-EZ application process for 501(c)(3) status
- Drafting bylaws and conflict-of-interest policies that satisfy IRS and state requirements
- Understanding the restrictions on board compensation, private benefit, and self-dealing
- Managing unrelated business income (UBIT) and ensuring it doesn't jeopardize exempt status
- Handling state charitable registration requirements across multiple jurisdictions
