    Who needs a corporate lawyer?

    Most people who own businesses need corporate lawyers, even if their business is very small. There are just too many laws governing how business gets conducted to go without one. 

    For example, when you hire your first employee you take on tax and insurance obligations you didn’t have before, as well as obligations to take steps to protect that employee’s health and safety. If you need to fire that employee later you run the risk of a lawsuit if it isn’t done right.

    If your business has a physical location that people visit and use then you have to think about all of your obligations to maintain that property, and to protect the people who visit.

    If you work with vendors or subcontractors of any kind then you will most likely create and sign contracts. This creates a web of obligations that can trip you up later. In addition, you may well end up with dozens of entities who have obligations to you and your business. Some people won’t uphold their end of the bargain.

    If you want the advantages of a corporation then you’ll need to have that corporation set up correctly. You’ll need to meet certain obligations under Saskatchewan law, as well as under federal law.

    At any point, you could also end up facing a lawsuit, or needing to launch one of your own. 

    If you aren’t prepared, any of these issues could result in the death of your business because they can incur millions of dollars worth of costs that you weren’t prepared for.


    When do you need a business lawyer? 

    You need a business lawyer the moment you launch or purchase a business, or the moment you make the transition from “independent contractor” to business owner. You never know when a legal issue could threaten your company. 

    Corporate lawyers even help you during the business purchase process, as they can help you conduct the due diligence that you must go through before buying a business.
