Habitat for Humanity Philadelphia

GENERAL COUNSEL CASE STUDY

The Challenge

An affiliate of the largest nonprofit homebuilder worldwide, Habitat for Humanity Philadelphia transforms lives and the City of Philadelphia by building and repairing homes in partnership with families in need. Like many other nonprofit organizations of its size, Habitat recognized it did not have the volume of legal work to justify hiring full-time general counsel but it needed legal counsel on call to keep its infrastructure strong and to step in to assist with matters on a moment’s notice.
