Weinberg & Jacobs, LLP

Tax Exempt Organizations Practice Group

The Tax Exempt Organizations Practice Group was founded by Mark B. Weinberg. He brings extensive experience to the representation of tax exempt organizations, including §501(c)(3) charities and professional associations, §501(c)(4) social welfare organizations, §501(c)(6) trade associations, and other exempt groups. He have also successfully counseled State and local governmental units in structuring their affairs so as to minimize or avoid taxes under concepts of Intergovernmental Tax Immunity and §115 of the Internal Revenue Code.

While IRS audits, large and small, are a specialty of ours, we plan for our clients so as to avoid problems. Our firm organizes and secures appropriate Federal, State and local tax exemptions for a wide variety of exempt groups. We also create taxable subsidiaries, restructure contracts so as to minimize Unrelated Business Income Tax, and revise non-profit governance systems for existing organizations. We also provide tax planning for both the organizations and their prospective donors, configure nonqualified executive compensation, guide private foundations through the specific constraints applicable to them, and advise charities, social welfare groups, trade and professional associations on related issues such as tax limits on lobbying and campaign activity by tax exempt entities.

Weinberg & Jacobs' attorneys have handled such specific matters as: creation and operation of Family Private Foundations, planned giving, mergers and acquisitions of non-profits, creation of for-profit subsidiaries and re-organizations. Our clients include many public charities (such as public broadcasters, a national academy, and universities and museums here and abroad), private foundations, social welfare groups, trade and professional associations, and religious institutions.
