Corporate Services
Every business entity in Canada has its own identity. The MLT Aikins Corporate Services team assists our clients in maintaining legal and regulatory compliance of business entities across provincial and territorial jurisdictions.
How we help
Our Corporate Services team performs annual maintenance tasks, such as preparing and filing corporate documents, maintaining records and updating minute books. We help ensure that your corporate governance operates smoothly and, as a result, your business avoids compliance issues. Whether it is a Canadian or a foreign corporation, our team can assist in establishing and maintaining your business in Canada.
MLT Aikins offers a comprehensive service for global entity management companies (GEMS) that covers all aspects of each client’s jurisdictional requirements. Our Corporate Services team has extensive knowledge of the legal, regulatory and compliance matters that may impact global entities in Canada.
Our experience working with GEMS translates into establishing processes and procedures tailored to a client’s specific needs. Our Corporate Services managers are engaged early on to explore and fully understand the service needs of each client. We leverage our internal resources based on the complexity of the scope of work and coordinate with our teams and agents within each applicable jurisdiction, as needed.
Collaboration is key
MLT Aikins is proud to collaborate with individual team members across our six Western Canadian offices to effectively manage and support our clients. Plus, we establish price certainty based on the bespoke services required by our GEMS clients.
We are experts in entity management – supporting thousands of entities across Western Canada – further strengthened by a network of agents throughout the rest of the country. Given our location, we have deep insight into the New West Partnership Trade Agreement (NWPTA) effectively managing our client’s needs. And whether you need annual maintenance, entity formation, extra-provincial registration, reorganization or dissolution, our firm is your turnkey legal partner.
Our established file opening and billing practices suit each GEMS client’s needs. Our internal processes set clear expectations regarding intake, pricing, file transition and compliance, and we provide excellent customer service through regular engagement and feedback.
Small to large transactions
The services that we can assist with range from the smallest to largest transaction – whether it’s annual compliance or a larger-scale transaction. GEMS look to us for legal services when they need the support of a trusted legal partner. As a full-service law firm, we have more than 300 lawyers to support the most complex legal issues such as mergers and acquisitions, taxation and labour and employment.
We handle a high volume of entities with excellence. By maximizing a one touchpoint structure, we continue to satisfy GEMS by looking at everything from your perspective. Our Corporate Services team continues to grow to meet our client’s needs.
MLT Aikins understands the global entity management process and demonstrates competency – and the highest level of service – throughout.
