Corporate Law
DONE NOW. DONE RIGHT. ®
Managing a corporation comes with enough of its own challenges. The last thing you should stress about is compliance issues and complex tax problems. Lean on our expertise for corporate law solutions.
Shareholder agreements should leave nothing open to question
Ironing out all the details in a shareholder agreement the first time prevents major ownership disputes in the future once an enterprise succeeds and reaches scale.
Rather than relying on cut-rate legal advice for incorporation and shareholder agreements, consider seeking a customized solution that matches the unique needs of your business and its shareholders. It can reduce your risk of becoming embroiled in a serious dispute over ownership rights. Our Calgary corporate lawyers will work with you every step of the way to ensure the process is Done Now. Done Right®.

LeClair Thibeault will help you reduce your risk, reduce fines you might need to pay, and more. Get it done right every time with our corporate law services.

Annual Filing
All Canadian corporations must file annual returns under the Canada Business Corporations Act (CBCA). Make sure yours goes smoothly this year.
In order for your Canadian corporation to remain in good standing, you need to file your annual return properly each year. Failing to keep your corporation in good standing can give the Canadian Business Corporations Act (CBCA) the authority to dissolve your corporation. Fortunately, that doesn’t happen with our clients who work with our corporate lawyers.
The more complex your corporation is, the more complicated the annual filing form is going to be. Because this is such a critical document to get right each year, it’s convenient to hand the work over to corporate law professionals. We will take on the stress for you, and ensure regular annual filing compliance.
Stay in compliance
All Canadian corporations need to file the annual return accurately and pay the relevant fees to avoid serious issues with the government.
Handle standing disputes
If your corporation has fallen out of good standing, we can assist you in getting back into the good graces of the CBCA quickly and effectively. End the headache.
Certification compliance
Keep your documents correct to verify that your corporation exists and is owned by the people who are supposed to own it. Staying on top of certification compliance will help you avoid future costly problems.
Make it official
Many startups and small businesses have less than perfect compliance. By having status in good standing, it’s easier to get contracts with larger Canadian enterprises.
Tax Solutions
Prevent tax disputes before they happen. Settle back taxes and prevent tax litigation. We will help you cut down on fees paid for noncompliance.
It’s said that there are two certain things in this world: death and taxes. As of yet, there is no cure for death. Fortunately for Canadian corporations, there are effective solutions for many corporate tax problems. We provide many of them. Whether your tax issue is everyday or exotic and confusing, we’ll make sense of it and get you to an effective and affordable resolution. LeClair Thibeault’s corporate law services include providing tax structuring advice, tax litigation defense, tax settlement help, and more.
Reduce your exposure
Many Canadian corporations don’t take advantage of all the tax deductions and other programs that they can use to reduce their exposure to the tax authorities.
Avoid tax disputes
Corporate tax law is more complicated than personal tax law. Our experts customize tax solution packages for sophisticated corporate clients and remove some of those complications for you.
Corporate tax settlement
We’ll help to reduce the amount owing for your tax settlements paid if you are in breach of compliance. In many cases, we have substantially reduced taxes owed.
Halt asset seizures
Canadian tax authorities can seize assets, freeze corporate accounts, and even shut down your business. We can stop that process before it starts.
