Establishing your business starts with choosing a business structure that is appropriate for your business given your industry, size of operation and long-term goals. This may be a sole proprietor, corporation, partnership or not-for-profit organization.
Some businesses operate as a sole proprietor, without any formal legal structure. To get started, we can help you register a trade name for your business to ensure your goodwill is protected.
Other businesses are established as corporations. Our corporate team will work with you to determine which jurisdiction you should incorporate in, whether provincially, extra-provincially, or federally. Once we have incorporated your business, we will provide ongoing legal support, such as clarifying the relationship between shareholders with a Shareholders’ Agreement, and determining how the company will be managed. The business department at Chiasson & Roy has been developed over a long period of time, and the working group of Mr. Erik Roy has established, over the years, a solid reputation in that field.
Our law firm was established on May 31, 1993 from the merger of two master ideas: efficiency and dynamism.
