Practice Areas > Risk Management Assessments

Law Office of Adrienne N. Newsom has designed a 7-point audit to help religious organizations  identify & eliminate pitfalls in key risk areas.  With experience conducting legal and risk management audits since 1998, we cover key hot spots as follows:
  1. Governance and organizational issues
  2. Employment practices
  3. Pastoral counseling
  4. Property management (premises safety, leasing and proper use of church resources)
  5. Insurance and contract review
  6. Intellectual property (copyright, trademark and licensing)
  7. Youth ministry issues (screening, safety, supervision and abuse reporting)
What will it cost?  A little of your time and between $4,000 to $7,000 depending on your operations.  For a tailored proposal and budget, call 1-310-242-5674 to speak with Adrienne.

What does it include?  Our audit service includes attorney time to understand your operations, review your documents, prepare your confidential report and provide assistance so you can prioritize and tackle the most important areas first.

What is it worth?  Litigation is on the rise.  Claims range from motor vehicle and premises liability cases to negligent supervision and child abuse allegations, not to mention employment claims (in some cases a losing employer may be ordered to pay the other party’s attorney fees and costs.)

Whether these claims have merit is beside the point given the high defense costs and harm to an organization's reputation.  Our 7-point legal audit can help protect your organization by reducing the risk of costly litigation, penalties and negative publicity. 

A legal and risk management assessment is a sign of your good stewardship.

Let Law Office of Adrienne N. Newsom help you as you take pains to do what is right, not only in the eyes of the Lord but also in the eyes of men (2 Corinthians 8:21.)
