I have considerable professional experience in the establishment and dissolution of associations, foundations and other non-governmental organisations, in the amendment of their articles of association and in the drafting of their internal regulations. My services also include the full management of the acquisition of public benefit status and providing legal advice on issues arising in the day-to-day operations of non-profit organisations (e.g. data protection). Experience in recent years has shown that the courts registering NGOs place great emphasis on granting only applications that are legally and formally correct, and therefore the assistance of an attorney may be required in both the registration and amendment procedures.
My main services in this framework include:
- formation of a non-governmental organisation, amendment of its articles of association
- procedings for obtaining public benefit status
- dissolution of an NGO, winding up
- legal representation of NGOs in litigation and non-contentious proceedings
- legal advice on matters concerning NGOs
