How do you know when your nonprofit actually needs a lawyer, and how do you choose the right one?

Kristina Raattama, founder of MK Consulting, shares about when and how to consider hiring legal advice to organize your nonprofit when you’re on a tight budget. Learn what to look for when searching for a purpose-driven attorney who will align with your cause, understand your organizational structure, and invest themselves into your nonprofit beyond the transaction.

Formerly an attorney in the corporate world, Kristina took time off to study the social issue of income inequality and how legal professionals can use their skills to make widespread systemic change in the face of outdated policies that perpetuate social problems. Her mission now includes aiding mission-driven nonprofit organizations to achieve their goals by providing practical, straight-forward, cost-effective solutions to address their day to day legal and compliance-related needs.
