We also help clients set up all types of partnerships, including drafting partnership agreements and guiding them through the resolution of partnership disputes.
Assistance for Religious Non-Profit Corporations
At DeFur Voran, we have experience working with clients to start non-profit corporations or organizations for religious groups or a particular religion. Non-profit law and corporate law both have very specific regulations regarding religious groups. When the need arises for non-profit corporate litigation, we have lawyers with experience in this area, from handling inter-group disputes to contesting a religious group’s election results.
