Charities and community organisations need the right structure and governance to access tax concessions and protect volunteers.
The Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission registers and regulates charities, while associations are incorporated under state law. Deductible gift recipient status is managed by the ATO.
Understand the next step
Explain the organisation’s structure, activities and proposed change. Clarify whether advice is for the organisation, its committee or an individual with a potential conflict.
Ask whether charity, tax and fundraising matters are included or require separate input.
The Fleurieu & Kangaroo Island directory area should not be treated as one convenient travel zone. Check whether a firm’s actual office and remote services suit your location before booking.
For not-for-profit & charity law, ask which parts of the work the firm handles itself and whether it has relevant SA experience. Let the lawyer know if a property, employer, other party or existing proceeding is outside Fleurieu & Kangaroo Island. Your home address alone does not determine the applicable process.
Explain the transaction, amount involved, parties and desired result. Provide the current agreement and relevant entity or trust details.
Ask which risks need legal, accounting, tax or technical advice. Identify essential terms and those you are willing to negotiate.
Agree who negotiates, approves documents and tracks continuing obligations. Clarify whether post-completion advice is included.
Request a defined scope or staged budget with assumptions about document review and negotiation rounds. Personal guarantees, tax and related disputes may need separate work.
Ask for a written scope identifying the work you are authorising, the person responsible and when costs will be reviewed. If you only want advice on one step, say so before the firm begins wider work.
Highlight signing dates, finance conditions and demands. Raise an inability to meet debts immediately so appropriate advice can be identified before further commitments.
