What nonprofit leaders say about Napa Legal All Access

Marjorie Dannenfelser

President of Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America

“Napa Legal’s work is making it possible for faith-based and pro-life groups to equip, prepare, and protect their organizations in a post-Roe landscape. Their practical tools and nonprofit resources are easy to understand and even easier to use. I recommend that every faith-based and pro-life organization sign up for Napa Legal All Access today!”

Alan Sears

Former CEO and Founder of Alliance Defending Freedom

“Faith-based nonprofits can save themselves a lot of time, trouble, and expense by signing up for Napa Legal All Access. You can determine in just a few seconds whether or not you need to comply with certain registration requirements and whether or not those registration requirements must be done before you engage in any type of fundraising in the particular state.”

Kate Abbot

Board member, Waterfront Academy

"Napa Legal has been a game-changer—instead of wandering around the internet looking up information and wondering if it's correct or would work for faith-based orgs, they have it all in one place."

Chaney Mullins Gooley

Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America's HerPLAN

"All Access is exactly the tool that non-profits need to understand compliance and ensure they are protected. I hope many more claim their license."

Camille Pauley

President and CEO, Healing the Culture

"In this over-regulated, legally complicated world, it's a blessing beyond words to have Napa Legal there to protect and guide us. They've come to our rescue more times than I can count. Thank you for understanding our needs and speaking our language!"

Fr. Dominic Legge, O.P.

Director of the Thomistic Institute and Assistant Professor in Systematic Theology at the Pontifical Faculty of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C.
