Foundations & Nonprofits

Davis Wright Tremaine's foundations and nonprofits group understands the unique needs of philanthropists, nonprofits and tax-exempt organizations. Our clients must pursue their missions efficiently while navigating a maze of complex and ever-changing laws. They face scrutiny from donors, beneficiaries, the public, the press, and regulators. We help them ensure they are meeting their obligations of good governance and legal compliance, structuring solutions and providing them timely guidance and support so they can remain focused on achieving their goals and impact.

We deliver exceptional legal services to leading foundations, public charities, and philanthropists across the country, who look to us as they explore new opportunities and encounter legal and operational challenges. Our depth and years of experience in the field are recognized nationally and allow us to answer questions practically and quickly. We pride ourselves on translating complex tax and legal concepts into useful advice that enable our clients to engage in effective, strategic decision-making.
