Navigating the Maze - an introduction to legal issues for not-for-profit community groups

PilchConnect's legal seminar series kicks off again in 2012 with our popular introduction to legal issues for not-for-profit community groups in Victoria.

This seminar is designed to help you navigate the ‘maze' of legal concepts, processes and requirements for not-for-profits - especially useful if you are just getting started!

Presented by PilchConnect lawyers, the session focuses on:

  • Getting started - key concepts and issues to consider
  • Incorporation - the pros and cons, how to do it
  • Tax concessions - what are they? Can we get them and how?
  • Duties of board / committee of management members
  • Risk management and insurance.

This seminar will encourage questions and active participation from attendees. We invite multiple representatives from community groups to attend.
