BUSINESS & CORPORATE
We provide a wide range of business, corporate, and commercial law services. Whether you want to start a business, buy or sell a business, reorganize an existing corporation, or have some contracts drawn up, we can help!
We can provide advice on whether to incorporate or run a business personally. If incorporation is the right step, we can take care of that for you and get your corporation up and running. If you are getting into business with partners, family, or friends, you should highly consider having a shareholder or partnership agreement drawn up to make sure everyone is on the same page for how to run the business, pay dividends, and how to resolve disputes among business partners.
