Religious Organizations

We are outside legal counsel to religious organizations, including schools, ministries, governing bodies, communities, and churches. While these clients have many needs that mirror those of our business and other non-profit clients, we serve our religious clients with a special eye for how laws and regulations may impact them differently. This includes property and federal tax compliance, employment law, and other areas. The religious organizations we serve range from fledgling new ministries to established institutions in complex transactions. We serve clients of all faiths and beliefs and keep our clients’ missions at the forefront of our work.

We assist religious organizations with matters including employment law, formation, tax-exempt status, property tax exemption, intellectual property, real property transactions, fundraising and development, transactions with for-profit entities, and corporate governance.
