Our Nonprofit Start-up Workshop is designed to help you through the legalities and business issues you’ll face in launching your new organization. We help you to complete the necessary state and federal forms and provide a wealth of practical advice including business, governance, and financial matters for nonprofit start-ups.

Few attorneys have LCA’s years of experience in these important topics. Our Workshops give you the ability to do everything you would otherwise have to retain a private attorney to do for you. We cover:

    • Completing necessary forms, bylaws, articles of incorporation, and more.
