Providing Support

Legal Counsel

With Community Initiatives, you have a lawyer on-call, ready with answers. We partner with six different law firms, giving project access to a deep bench of legal experts on a wide range of nonprofit legal matters. Community Initiatives offers access to legal experts in the following areas:
  • Trademark
  • Intellectual property
  • Discrimination claims
  • Real estate
  • Employment & Discrimination
  • H-1 B visa extensions
  • Unrelated business income tax
  • Partnership agreements
Occasionally, a project will require highly specialized or intensive legal support. In those cases, Community Initiatives will pair projects with our vetted legal expert at a discounted rate.
Four hands joined in a supportive manner, symbolizing teamwork and unity.
“Our contacts have been very helpful in walking us through the introductory process to systems and procedures. Community Initiatives plays an important role to informal groups in the community who want to make a difference.”
