NOTICE:
StartCHURCH Does Not Provide Legal Advice


Although StartCHURCH obtains advice and assistance from lawyers in many jurisdictions, StartCHURCH is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice to others. 

StartCHURCH employs a CPA and an attorney who are authorized to practice before the Internal Revenue Service, and those professionals may be able to provide you with certain specific advice regarding federal tax issues, at your request.  In all other respects, document packages available from StartCHURCH provide general legal information for self-help, but we do not and cannot give you advice that is specific to your situation.  We do not review the information you provide us for sufficiency or accuracy under the law, and we do not apply the law to the facts concerning your church.  Information provided by StartCHURCH is not a substitute for legal advice from a qualified attorney licensed to practice in an appropriate jurisdiction.  We encourage you to consult with a licensed attorney in your state for advice specific to your issues.   

If you need and want legal advice apart from federal tax issues, we may be able to introduce you to a lawyer licensed in your jurisdiction who can assist you if you choose.  StartCHURCH is not a Lawyer Referral Service, and any such introduction is without charge by StartCHURCH and is for informational purposes only.  StartCHURCH does not endorse any such attorney and does not warrant his or her qualifications or competency.
