At Rack & Olansen, P.C., we believe in giving back to the community some of the gifts we have received. As lawyers, we contribute our special knowledge and experience to local charities in which we are involved. As parents, we donate our time to educational, religious and recreational activities. As active members of the growing Hampton Roads business community, we seek to promote better support and opportunity for our fellow citizens.
Charitable organizations seek out attorneys as volunteers for their knowledge and experience in matters as diverse as formation and administration of charitable entities, tax planning, fund-raising issues, contract matters and litigation avoidance, to name a few.
