Maurice Turnor Gardner LLP acts for a number of large and household name clients, and the broad practice covers issues as diverse as establishing and registering operational and grant-making charities, to advising on serious incident reporting and governance matters. It is well-equipped to handle significant charity law disputes, and much of its work is international. Another core area of focus is assisting its wealthy clients with philanthropy and charitable giving efforts, and the group has also been helping significant charities with their engagement with the Charity Commission.
