Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have more questions for our business lawyers? We have the answer.
Corporate law is that part of business law which governs the legal structure and operation of companies. This specialized branch covers the creation of corporations, the drafting of shareholder agreements and corporate governance.
In concrete terms, corporate law determines how your company makes its strategic decisions, distributes its powers among shareholders and directors, and complies with its legal obligations. Professionals in this field assist managers with annual meetings, the drafting of all types of corporate documents and compliance with the Companies Act.
This legal expertise becomes indispensable as soon as your organization moves beyond the sole proprietorship stage to adopt a more complex corporate structure.
What are the 4 sources of corporate/business law in Quebec?
Canadian commercial law draws its rules from four main sources that provide a framework for your corporate operations.
The first source is federal and provincial legislation, including the Canada Business Corporations Act and provincial company statutes. Jurisprudence forms the second source, where the courts interpret and clarify the application of corporate laws.
Agreements and contracts represent the third source: shareholder agreements,purchase/sale contracts and governance agreements create obligations specific to your structure. Industry customs and practices complete this framework, particularly in specialized fields where certain business practices are recognized by the courts.
Our legal services integrate these four sources to effectively structure your business according to industry standards.
