Meticulous work pays off for non-profit

Jon Daugharthy is our attorney for a nationally recognized foundation that works with elected officials across the United States. His meticulous work allowed our application to the IRS to become a 501(c)(3) tax-deductible organization to not only be approved by the IRS, but was approved in LESS THAN ...90 DAYS. Jon helped a group of elected officials and board of directors understand the difference between the various classes of non-profit organizations, the laws that apply to each, and the advantages and disadvantages of each. Jon will continue to have our respect and gratitude as we move forward with him with any of our legal needs. Jon's work ethic, professionalism, and character is simply the best we have seen. If you are a non-profit that needs help maneuvering through the government's bureaucratic nightmare, Jon is the ideal attorney for the job.

Application for 501(c)3

Mr. Daugharthy was recommended to me from a friend when we started working on the application for our ministry to file as a tax exempt not-for-profit. Working with him was great, he did a wonderful job of getting to know exactly what our ministry was about and where our hearts were at, a very import...ant aspect when filing with the IRS. Mr. Daugharthy did a great job putting together all of our required paperwork and did an incredible job on the application. After filing the application I was expecting to have to go back and forth with the IRS several times before getting our approval but Mr. Daugharthy did such a great job that our application was approved on the first submission. I highly recommend his services!

Excellent!

Jon assisted our group in becoming a non-profit 501(c) (3) organization. While none of our group was that experienced in the application process, Jon’s direction was paramount and our non-profit application was approved upon its first submission. From the forming of the non-profit organization to o...btaining tax-exempt status from the IRS, to complying with federal and state laws governing fund-raising and operations, the advice from Jon was crucial at every stage of development. We, as leaders of the non-profit organization, are focused on developing its mission and resources. Guidance from him with special expertise in federal and state laws applicable to non-profit organizations has enabled us to grow the organization with the assurance that our legal requirements are being met. Jon is very personable and accessible and willing to clearly explain each step, which is sometimes rare to find in legal counsel. We are, without a doubt, impressed with his knowledge and proficiency and continue to refer his legal services to friends and associates.

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
