Corporate Law

Organizational planning is the key to business success. The incorporation of a business is a step to consider whether you are starting out or thinking of changing the structure of your organization.

There are many types of structures a business can choose. A business structure can significantly impact fiscal and legal obligations on its owners towards third parties.

Corporate law is part of business, and impacts every aspect of its activities. Mathieu Quesnel Professional Corporation possesses the knowledge, skills and abilities to help you plan the incorporation of your company.

Why should you choose to incorporate your business?

There are many advantages to incorporating your business. The creation of a corporation limits the liability of the proprietor to the statutory obligations created by the federal and provincial laws, which can, in certain situations, protect the proprietor against being held responsible for the debts of the corporation. In addition, the incorporation can let you deal with income control, which translates to legitimate tax advantages.

The Canada Business Corporation Act governs a federal corporation and its legislative obligations while a provincial corporation is governed by the Business Corporations Act.
