In 1955, Bernard Perlman established the first state regulatory agency in the U. S. devoted exclusively to the oversight of charitable activities. Today, these functions are carried out by the Charities Bureau of the New York State Attorney General?s Office.Bernard?s early dedication to the philanthropic sector became the basis for a law practice which continues to provide forward-thinking, comprehensive legal advice to and representation of the philanthropic community.
