About
Provided by Stone King LLP
Stone King’s work with charities is at the heart of our practice. We are recognised as one of the leading law firms for charities in the UK, acting for many hundreds across the sector from household names through to local community groups.
Working nationally with offices in Bath, Birmingham, Cambridge, Leeds, London and Manchester, our legal advice includes:
- Campaigning and electoral.
- Charity legacy.
- Charity trustee training and advice.
- Crisis management including Charity Commission investigations.
- Complex historic trusts and charity structures.
- Constitutional & governance.
- Education-related charities
- Employment & HR.
- Fundraising.
- Immigration advice and support.
- Information law.
- Intellectual property.
- Interim managers.
- Leading advisers to mature social enterprise.
- Mergers.
- New structures.
- Supporting organisations with environmental and sustainability goals.
As trusted advisers to the charity sector we regularly advise charities in the eye of the storm, often working as the core part of a multi-disciplinary team. Crises frequently emanate from inter-related events e.g. EDI, safeguarding, data loss, financial oversight or so-called “culture wars”.
Our practice also sees us working across many faiths with unrivalled expertise in Roman Catholic religious orders and Diocesan charities as well as having deep expertise in ecclesiastical and charity law affecting the Church of England.
