The religious charities group is a group of lawyers within
the firm who can provide this advice. The firm as a whole
offers a full range of legal services in the charity, commercial
and private fields, and the religious charities group is able
to draw on this wide ranging experience, co-ordinating the
input of other experts where necessary.
In addition, our lawyers have up-to-date practical experience
of guiding clients through the legislation and regulation
in this area and providing cost effective and focused solutions.
Recognising the importance of any existing professional relationships,
we are very happy to work in association with the existing
advisors, or on an ad hoc basis where our expertise can be
brought to bear on a specific problem.
Our services
We go further than simply advising our clients in response
to particular problems that arise. We understand the need
for our clients to be kept up to date with the practical implications
of legal developments. We achieve this by:
Regular bulletins, Email
alerts on urgent business and Seminars.
Client training
In some areas, such as employment, we can also provide access
to the extranet, providing practical, easy-to-interpret guidance
on a range of key topics. Click

team.
