Franks Ogilvie specialises in supporting member based organisations and not-for-profit organisations. We understand the unique challenges organisation like these can face and often the need for legal advice to be available not just to leadership but also the members.
We can assist and organisations on how to organise their structure, deal with members, shareholders and board member disputes. We help with managing constitutional processes like rule changes and meetings.
Since the Incorporated Societies Act passed in 2022, we have advised on a significant number of constitutional changes for clients in preparation for re-registering.
Examples of our work:
