Tax Law:  Non-Profit Organizations

We know the "business" of non-profit and tax-exempt entities, as we have spent years as active and engaged leaders in the non-profit organizations in our community.  We understand the passion that non-profit leaders have for their mission, and we assist their organizations in the pursuit of their cause.  We recognize first-hand the challenges faced each day by non-profits, which operated under the careful scrutiny of donors, members, the public, and the IRS.

 

Élan Kaney has a long history of representing, leading, and forming non-profit and tax-exempt entities, including charitable and civic groups, professional or business organizations, foundations, schools, hospitals, religious organizations, and governmental entities.  As an AV rated tax attorney, Élan provides extensive guidance on issues concerning formation, operations, governance, employment, and financing under various and applicable federal, state, and local laws.
