Starting a charity or running an existing not-for-profit, trust or social enterprise is fulfilling but can be challenging. Charity law and governance dictates its own unique set of requirements that every charitable organisation must adhere to.
Navigating the complexities of the charity sector, including forming a new charity, expressing your charity’s purposes in accordance with the law and complying with charity law and regulations can be daunting. On top of this, you will also have to deal with the general legal hurdles that every business faces such as employment, property, data protection and intellectual property.
That’s where we come in. LawBite is the leading legal platform, handling thousands of cases each month and receiving great ratings for our work. Charities are highly regulated, subject to public scrutiny and the regulations that apply have to be strictly adhered to.
We use the latest technology to streamline the client-lawyer experience, removing the clutter to provide high-quality legal services, delivered faster and cheaper.
We have our own law firm on our platform, with all the lawyers certified in the UK, so you can rest assured that all work is regulated by the SRA and is fully insured.
The law directs how to form a charity and, for charities requiring registration with the Charity Commission, the process to follow is dictated by them. We can help steer you down the right path and get in the best possible shape to gain the necessary approvals.
