What’s Included
Incorporations & Name Registrations
We help Ontario entrepreneurs incorporate a business, register a business name, complete NUANS name searches, and file all required corporate documents. Our team ensures your new corporation is set up correctly and compliant with provincial requirements, so you can start operating with confidence.
Shareholder Agreements
We draft and negotiate shareholder agreements that define ownership, control, decision-making, exit rights, and dispute resolution, helping protect both majority and minority shareholders in private Ontario companies.
Partnership Agreements
We prepare partnership agreements that clearly outline roles, capital contributions, profit sharing, management authority, and exit mechanisms so partners understand their rights and obligations from the start.
Dissolutions
We guide business owners through voluntary corporate dissolution, taking care of regulatory filings, notices to stakeholders, and distribution of remaining assets so the company can be wound up in an orderly and compliant way.
Contracts
We draft, review, and negotiate commercial contracts: including service agreements; supplier contracts; NDAs; and licensing arrangements, to help manage legal risk and align your agreements with how your business actually operates.
Employment Law
We assist with employment contracts, termination packages, workplace policies, and contractor versus employee issues, helping employers reduce HR risk and comply with Ontario employment standards and human rights law.
Mergers & Acquisitions (Private and Public)
We act for buyers, sellers, and investors in private and public company mergers and acquisitions, assisting with due diligence, deal structuring, transaction documents, and closing so transactions proceed smoothly.
Restructurings
We advise on corporate restructurings, reorganizations, and recapitalizations, helping businesses realign ownership, simplify structures, and manage distressed situations while maintaining legal and tax efficiency.
Fund Creation
We assist with forming private funds and investment vehicles, including drafting offering documents, partnership or shareholder agreements, and governance structures that align with securities, tax, and regulatory requirements.
Municipal & Land Use Services
We provide corporate clients with municipal and land use advice related to zoning, variances, development approvals, and planning issues that impact business operations and real estate projects.
