An Attorney Who Understands Charitable Organizations
When charitable organizations have a legal issue, they need an attorney who not only understands the law, but who also understands non-profit organizations and their unique structure and concerns. My name is Becki Kammerling, and I am that attorney. With years of experience working with non-profit organizations such as the Sierra Club, CALPIRG and Environment California, I understand the social mission of non-profit organizations. As a skilled lawyer, I know how to help fulfill those goals through creative legal avenues. I work as a consultant and legal representative for my clients in Santa Monica, Marina Del Rey, Venice and throughout Southern California, providing ongoing support for their core values and mission. Serving All the Legal Needs of Charitable OrganizationsI provide a full range of legal services to new and well-established charitable organizations, including: - Non-profit formation: I assist clients with all aspects of forming a non-profit organization, including obtaining 501(c)(3) tax-exempt status and state tax-exempt status from the California State Franchise Tax Board, choosing board members, and choosing the appropriate organizational structure.
- Regulatory Compliance: I work in a consulting role for charitable organizations, helping them comply with local, state and federal regulations, and ensure that their tax-exempt status remains intact when participating in fund raising activities.
- Contracts: I draft and review a range of contracts for non-profit organizations, including partnership agreements and licensing agreements.
- Partnerships: Often, non-profit organizations wish to partner with other like-minded non-profits and businesses to better achieve their goals. I draft any needed contracts between the two entities.
- Litigation: I provide dedicated representation to non-profit organizations in all litigation matters, including Wage and Hour Law violations, breaches of contract and regulatory compliance violations.
I also provide legal assistance to charitable or environmentally friendly businesses through my business law practice. Focused Assistance for Environmental Organizations
With degrees in environmental law and environmental science, and with more than 13 years of experience as a leader in the environmental community, I am well-positioned to assist environmental organizations and green businesses with all of their legal needs. I utilize my knowledge in this area to help these organizations maximize their tax-exempt status and develop creative partnerships and alliances with like-minded businesses and non-profits.
