Personal Injury Legal Representation

Richards Brandt Miller Nelson usually represents defendants in personal injury property loss claims through assignment by their insurance carriers. However, our experience on the defense side makes us especially effective in injured persons, provided that we do not have a conflict. We welcome inquiries from accident victims who have suffered serious injuries in catastrophic or life threatening accidents, as well as businesses seeking personal injury liability protection.

Experience and success representing both plaintiffs and defendants give an attorney a distinct advantage when a claim has been filed. This type of experience gives the personal injury attorney a better understanding of which cases are better settled quickly and which should be tried. Experienced personal injury accident lawyers also know how to provide what the insurance company or claims evaluator needs at the beginning of the case, and how to present information at the right time to reach the most beneficial outcome for the client.

Good News for Small Nonprofits…Easy 501(c)(3) Filing Under 1023EZ

501(c)(3)

July 2014

IRS Announces Simplified Application for Small Charities Applying for 501(c)(3)

Starting July 1, 2014, small charities may be eligible to apply for tax exempt status by filing the
Internal Revenue Service’s new Form 1023-EZ.

Until recently, all non-profit organizations seeking tax-exempt status under 501(c)(3) were required to: pay the $850 filing fee; complete the 26 page IRS Form 1023; and provide the IRS with a detail summary of charitable activities, governing documents and financials.

Now the Internal Revenue Service has simplified the application for small charities. Most organizations that have assets valued less than $250,000 and annual gross receipts of $50,000 or less will qualify to use the new Form 1023-EZ. That form is only 3 pages and the application fee is $400. The new Form 1023-EZ must be filed online.

If you are planning formation a non-profit charity, you may want to consider filing the new Form 1023-EZ. The eligibility requirement are contained in the new Form1023-EZ’s instructions.
