OUR APPROACH

Forming and operating a nonprofit can be confusing and overwhelming, particularly when one is not familiar with applicable laws and requirements.  RPSA’s experienced professionals assist both new and seasoned nonprofit leaders in navigating the myriad of legal issues relating to their organizations so that they can focus their energies and talents on growing and achieving the mission.  RPSA’s lawyers not only advise nonprofit clients, but many also often serve on nonprofit boards, giving them an inside perspective on key organizational issues and ideal solutions.
