Frequently Asked Questions
What does a corporate lawyer do?
A corporate lawyer helps business owners with incorporations, contracts, shareholder matters, reorganizations, financing, and mergers or acquisitions. The goal is to protect your interests, reduce risk, and keep your business compliant with applicable laws in Quebec and Canada as it grows.
Why hire a corporate lawyer?
If you operate a business in Quebec, a corporate lawyer helps you reduce legal risk when signing contracts, adding partners, raising capital, or buying or selling a business. Early advice often prevents costly issues later.
How much does a corporate lawyer cost in Montreal or Quebec?
The fees associated with hiring a corporate lawyer in Quebec vary based on the scope and complexity of the work, the lawyer's experience, and the law firm's reputation. Many corporate matters are billed hourly, while defined services (like incorporations or certain agreements) may be offered at a fixed fee.
Do you work with clients outside Montreal?
Even though Paquette Attorneys is located in Kirkland, just minutes from downtown Montreal, we advise business owners across Quebec, and can often handle many corporate matters remotely depending on your needs.
