Top 3 Benefits of Charity Registration

  1. Tax Exemption: Registering a charity in Canada provides eligibility for tax exemption, allowing the organization to avoid paying income tax and issue tax receipts to donors.
  2. Access to Funding: Registered charities have access to various funding sources, such as government grants, foundations, corporate sponsorships, and public donations, facilitating financial support for charitable projects.
  3. Credibility and Trust: Registration enhances an organization's credibility by subjecting it to strict regulations and oversight, instilling trust in potential donors, partners, and stakeholders.

Meet Dov Goldberg, J.D.

Hi, I’m Dov Goldberg. As a Lawyer working exclusively with Charities and Not-for-Profits, I help founders and directors register their charity and/or not-for-profit without dealing with complicated legal forms, by taking care of all the paperwork so that you can successfully register your charity/NPO, have more freedom, peace of mind, and spend more time doing what you love.

In 2015, after working for several years in a boutique firm focused on corporate, business, and charity law, I took the leap to start a Law Firm dedicated exclusively to Charities and Not-for-Profit Corporations, so that I could help Charity Founders, Directors and Not-for-Profit Entrepreneurs register and operate their organizations on a solid and stable legal footing and so that I could work in a legal field where I am inspired daily by our amazing clients (…one of the best decisions I’ve ever made).

Hiring a Charity Lawyer

Charity and Not-for-Profit Law are very niche areas of law. In fact, there are only a handful of lawyers across Canada who are experts in these two areas of law.

The first thing to do when searching for a Charity or Not-for-Profit lawyer is to look for experience and practice focus. Here are some questions to ask a charity lawyer before hiring him or her:

With approximately 70% of all charity applications being rejected, do you guarantee charity registration?

How many years’ experience do you have in the area of Charity Law?

Approximately how many charity applications and registration have you processed?

Are your fees fixed or do you charge per hour?

If you allow for fixed fees, what do they include? Do they include all registration fees, HST, correspondence with the CRA, all the way to registration? Or do the fees only cover the application?

I had heard how tough it is to get a charity registered in Canada, so I knew I needed expert help. After some Google searching, I came across B.I.G Law Firm—and I’m so glad I did. From the very first virtual meeting, their team gave me the confidence and peace of mind I needed. Honestly, I still don’t even know where their physical office is because everything was handled virtually—and flawlessly. Once I submitted the requested documents, all I had to do was sign. They made the entire process feel like a walk in the park. Highly recommend. If you want your charity organization get approved, just don't think twice in dealing with this firm

Amazing people to work with! I am a startup, with very little resources and experience with the administrative part of creating a charity, and they walked me through everything! Trust me though, it's hard to start up a charity ! But this amazing group worked with me to fill out all the application questions ! 100% recommend!
