At KPMG Law, our Charitable and not-for-profit lawyers can provide appropriate guidance through every step of your organization’s life span.

Our lawyers offer strategic and effective advice to assist clients in all aspects relevant to their activities. We work with charities, not-for-profits and other non-taxable entities within Canada or with Canadian organizations operating abroad. Our lawyers have experience representing clients at the Tax Court of Canada, the Federal Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court of Canada.

We advise and represent in matters related to:

  • Incorporation
  • Governance
  • Registering as a charity with CRA and establishing non-profit organizations
  • Structuring significant and novel donations for maximum tax efficiency
  • Social Enterprise
  • Political Advocacy
  • Assisting charities in dealing with Canada Revenue Agency, including appeals of revocation of charitable registrations to the Federal Court of Appeal
  • Tax litigation and disputes

We offer services for taxpayers to structure significant charitable donations, both during their lifetimes and in their estate planning. For aboriginal organizations, we can provide services in establishing tax efficient vehicles for investment and for business activities.

Our lawyers can also work cross-functionally with other KPMG Law service lines in order to provide advice on other areas that need legal guidance.
