For many nonprofit organizations, issues can appear manageable on the surface while creating deeper legal or reputational exposure.

The greater risk is often waiting too long to address them. We help nonprofits approach risk management sustainability, as practical legal partners who understand the organization, its people, and its mission.

"We always felt like we were talking to a member of our community, not a lawyer. 

Alyssa [of AppleTree] was easy to talk to, and gave us the tools we needed to build and protect our organization.

She took us step by step, bringing in the whole team and helping us understand many levels of risk.

In an uncertain time for nonprofits, it's a relief to know AppleTree is there and ready if we need them."

 

Center for Cooperative Development and Solidarity (CCDS)

We understand nonprofits must be mindful of costs.

After an initial conversation, we'll assess your needs and work with you to create a fair and reasonable fee structure.

If you're looking for legal support, we want to help.
