TLG Managing Partner Jeff Tenenbaum Quoted in Chronicle of Philanthropy Article, “Attorney General Outlines Investigations into Nonprofits”

TLG Managing Partner Jeff Tenenbaum was quoted in the Chronicle of Philanthropy article, “Attorney General Outlines Investigations into Nonprofits.”Nonprofits with missions that even remotely fall into any of the categories outlined by Bondi need to be well prepared, Jeffrey Tenenbaum, a lawyer who represents nonprofits, told me. “That means knowing your rights. It means having a good attorney on standby,” Tenenbaum said. “It also means knowing what the federal government can and cannot do.” But the government may face an uphill battle. In civil cases, such as IRS investigations, because the federal government “doesn't have the ability, generally speaking, to revoke the tax-exempt status of a nonprofit with just the stroke of a pen,” Tenenbaum said.”
