<div dir="ltr">If they are general dos/don’ts type of questions and you are not currently experiencing legal exposure, there are some great resources out there that would be much less costly than an attorney. Nonprofit Association of Oregon, for example, or
there may even be a regional nonprofit support agency up there.</div>

<p>Have any of your organizations worked with an Attorney that deals specifically with nonprofits? We are looking for recommendations for a lawyer to speak to for clarification on some items specific to 501(c)3’s.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thanks in advance for your recommendations! </p>
