We will guide you through the steps necessary to set up a successful business and protect yourself from your creditors and partners. Should you incorporate or operate as a sole proprietor or partnership? What type of partnership structure should you use? What form of shareholder's agreement should you have in place? Should you purchase a business's shares or assets?
We have expertise in the creation of partnership or shareholder agreements which will allow you to set specific rules for the operation of your business, and for the eventual departure of a shareholder or partner, whether as a result of a parting of the ways, illness or death. We will review any Security Agreements you are asked to sign by your lending institution, and will draw agreements in your favour if you are lending money. We can review and negotiate lease terms, whether on behalf of a tenant or a landlord.
Let us help you make the correct legal decisions and put the proper documentation in place, so that you can have the peace of mind that allows you to concentrate on growing your business.
