Non-profit Organizations, Trade Associations and Public-Private Partnerships
Everett, Gaskins, Hancock & Stevens, LLP provides a wide array of services to a diverse group of non-profit organizations, trade associations, public-private partnerships and advocacy groups concerned with such varied matters as public education, economic development, press freedom, taxation, entrepreneurial incentives, travel and tourism, biotechnology, aquaculture, health care and open government. The firm assists these clients with initial organization and incorporation; applications for tax-exempt status; strategic planning; general legal counseling; association management and training; and lobbying. We also help non-profit organizations resolve numerous other challenges that require non-legal solutions and outside-the-box thinking, including design of management structure, fund-raising, and mission definition.
