Charities

Cains' private client department has expertise in acting for charities, whether trusts or guarantee companies or unincorporated associations. We can advise on the formation, registration and dissolution of charities, the responsibilities and liabilities of charitable trustees and governing bodies, setting up associated trading companies, property transactions and related tax issues.

Advice concerning charities can encompass anything from setting up charitable trusts to benefit a number of charities, putting a gift to a favourite charity in a will or including a charity amongst a beneficial class in a trust.
