Charities and philanthropy work covers legal advice to set up and run charitable organisations, protect charitable status, and manage funds for public benefit. A solicitor in this area helps with registering a charity, drafting constitutions and governing documents, applying for grants of charitable status, and navigating regulatory requirements. They also advise on charitable purposes, fundraising compliance, gift aid, loans and investments, reporting to the Charity Commission for England and Wales, and dealings with trustees, donors, and beneficiaries.

What a solicitor handles in these matters

The solicitor handles the specific provisions governing charities, including governance structures, trustees’ duties, charitable purposes, and reporting obligations. They work with charity accounts, compliance with charity law, and interaction with regulators such as the Charity Commission for England and Wales, ensuring funds are used for public benefit and that governance meets statutory standards.

Tagged solicitor Sharon Hawkes

Sharon Hawkes was excellent, professional and responsive from the outset. She also initiated an outcome that we had not considered and she acted with integrity and commitment, and I believe genuine care throughout.
