| You’re likely familiar with our coverage on the top five reasons churches go to court each year. It’s important for you to keep these specific issues in mind and actively work to address them if they ever arise. However, your church may face challenges beyond this top-five list. That is why today’s newsletter will focus on Legal Preparedness 101. This week, we have two articles featuring attorney Sally Wagenmaker that will offer guidance to help your church prepare well. First, in an interview with Church Law & Tax, Wagenmaker discusses how to protect churches from lawsuits. Secondly, in a companion interview, she explains when time and circumstances warrant paying for legal counsel, and she includes guidance on how churches with limited financial resources can still find legal help. What else is new? FREE WEBINAR: ChurchSalary is hosting a free webinar on October 7, 2021.
