CHARITIES.
NON-PROFITS.
GLOBAL OPERATIONS.
LOCAL COMPLIANCE.
WLA serves international charities, non-profits, NGOs, and foundations across governance, cross-border operations, employment, tax compliance, and regulatory licensing — co-practicing local law in every jurisdiction where you operate simultaneously.
SIX SERVICES.
ALL JURISDICTIONS.
ONE CO-PRACTICE TEAM.
One co-practice team across every jurisdiction you need — briefed together, aligned on strategy, reporting through one point of contact. All nine WLA core practices. All jurisdictions. One brief.
GOVERNANCE & CONSTITUTIONAL LAW
Charity governance, board composition, constitutional reform, and regulatory compliance co-practiced across every jurisdiction where the organisation operates simultaneously.
CROSS-BORDER OPERATIONS
International programme operations, grant-making across borders, and local entity establishment co-practiced in every country of operation simultaneously — one co-ordinated legal team.
EMPLOYMENT & SECONDMENT
Cross-border employment for international staff, secondment structures, and HR compliance co-practiced across every country where the organisation employs people simultaneously.
TAX COMPLIANCE
Multi-jurisdiction tax compliance for international charities — UK Gift Aid, US 509(a), EU equivalency, and local tax exemption frameworks co-practiced simultaneously.
PROCUREMENT & CONTRACTS
Grant agreements, public procurement compliance, and programme contracts co-practiced across every jurisdiction simultaneously — multilateral, bilateral, and private grant documentation.
DATA & PRIVACY FOR NGOs
GDPR, DPDP, and other data protection obligations for international charities operating in multiple jurisdictions co-practiced as one integrated compliance programme.
CORRIDOR LEGAL
WORK ACROSS
BOTH SIDES.
Charities & Non-Profits mandates frequently cross borders along WLA's active corridors. WLA holds both sides of every active corridor simultaneously — one brief covers every jurisdiction the matter touches.
