CHARITIES & NOT-FOR-PROFITS
Our Practice

 

At Shand Taylor Lawyers, we are proud of our extensive association with the not-for-profit sector.  We not only understand the issues which are unique and specific to the not-for-profit sector but can also provide charitable organisations with assistance in relation to a wide range of legal issues. 

 

We have extensive experience in the provision of corporate governance advice to not-for-profit management committees and boards of management.  We provide advice to early childhood education providers, community housing providers, aged care providers, sporting associations, environmental aid agencies, clubs, and societies.
