Tax Exempt Organizations

Spencer Fane Britt & Browne has extensive experience representing tax-exempt organizations, including public charities, trade associations, religious organizations, social welfare organizations, and private foundations. We advise on all issues that tax-exempt organizations may encounter, including the formation of the organization and entity structuring considerations, obtaining and maintaining tax-exempt status, joint ventures and mergers, private foundation issues, unrelated business income, excess benefit transactions and intermediate sanctions, political activities and lobbying, private benefit or inurement, conflicts of interest and fiduciary duties, tax-exempt financing, and charitable giving techniques and policies.
