Our specialist solicitors work across a wide range of sectors and represent some of the biggest charities as well as many smaller, more local operations.

Choosing the correct legal structure is important and our experienced Charity Law solicitors are able to advise you on the optimum arrangement for your organisation.

Since the introduction of the Charities Act 2006, a charity must now continue to meet the public benefit requirement throughout its life.

Wellers is one of the leading firms acting for charities associated with Parish and Town Councils, often where the Councils act as Sole or Joint Trustee of the Charity.

Wellers works with numerous faith-based organisations around the world. With our Christian heritage, we have a deep understanding of the unique support such organisations require and the specific challenges and opportunities they face.

Buying, selling or developing a property is likely to be one of the biggest transactions your charity will undertake and advice from an experienced charity law solicitor is essential.

We work with Charities, individuals and Executors to advise them on gifts to charities in Wills, in particular during the legacy and estate administration, we are equipped to assist with the interpretation of wills and gifts, day to day and ad hoc queries and legacy fundraising.

We help philanthropists from across the globe develop their giving and impact investment strategies and how to do so within charitable and tax efficient structures.

Many charities are realising that critical mass is often best achieved by merging with, taking over or partnering with other charitable entities that are involved in the common purpose. Wellers Charity Law solicitors have extensive experience in working with charities that have taken over other charities and those that have merged.

Sustainability and ensuring that your Charity’s funds are working in the best interests of your beneficiaries should be at the forefront of the Trustees’ minds and we have an expert team on hand who can help.
