Legal Minutes

Description

Make Your Minutes Legal!

Are your meeting minutes legal? Fully compliant with legal standards, and constructed in a way that protects your organization, while being transparent to your stakeholders?

Most organizations wing it when it comes to taking board and committee meeting minutes. This leaves them vulnerable to compliance failures, legal risk, lost institutional memory, and audit headaches.

This book will help you produce high-quality, compliant, legal minutes for your board and committee meetings. You will confirm that your minutes contain:

• All legally required information
• An appropriate level of detail
• Correct formal language for documenting votes and other standard protocols
• An easy-to-follow format to build consistency across your organization.

All governing bodies—nonprofits, school boards, government agencies, town committees, homeowner associations, and many others—are required to take and preserve official meeting minutes. Legal Minutes will clarify this process for you and your organization and help you produce minutes that you can trust.
