Charitable and Exempt Organizations

Glaser Weil’s skill in addressing complex tax issues has fueled our successful representation of a wide and eclectic range of public and private nonprofit and 501(c)(3) organizations. We assist charitable, educational and a variety of tax-exempt organizations with all organizational and operational aspects of obtaining and maintaining their tax-exempt status. Because of our technical depth and practical experience working with nonprofit organizations, the Firm has been instrumental in the formation and ongoing operation of some of our country’s largest philanthropic and charitable organizations, as well as private charitable foundations. 

We are frequently called upon to counsel organizations sponsored by police, fire and other government agencies to form charitable foundations that offer benefits to public servants and their families. These organizations require accommodations of unique political and administrative factors. The Firm provides advice on all tax-related issues for a number of museums, religious institutions and community organizations.
