Frequently Asked Questions

If you're considering hiring international talent or relocating employees to Canada, consulting with legal counsel can help clarify requirements and potential challenges. Many businesses benefit from guidance on Labour Market Impact Assessments, work permit applications, and compliance matters. We can review your situation and provide perspective on whether legal support would be helpful.
Initial consultations typically last 30-45 minutes. We'll discuss your situation, identify relevant legal considerations, and outline potential approaches. You'll have opportunity to ask questions about our experience, process, and fees. Following the consultation, we'll provide a summary of our discussion and next steps if you choose to proceed. There's no pressure to make immediate decisions.
Timelines vary based on the scope of work. Routine minute book updates might be completed within 2-3 weeks, while comprehensive governance reviews or reorganizations often require 4-8 weeks. We establish clear timelines at the outset and maintain communication if circumstances change. Our approach prioritizes thoroughness while respecting your business timeline needs.
We offer flat-fee contract review for standard commercial agreements. The listed rate of CAD $480 covers review of typical contracts up to 15 pages. More complex or lengthy agreements may require adjusted pricing, which we discuss upfront. This approach provides cost clarity before work begins. Ongoing contract support can be arranged through retainer agreements for businesses with regular needs.
While our office is located in Edmonton, we work with clients throughout Alberta and across Canada. Business immigration and corporate governance matters often don't require in-person meetings, though we're happy to arrange these when helpful. For matters involving other provinces, we assess whether we can provide effective representation or whether local counsel would better serve your needs.
Client confidentiality is fundamental to legal practice. We maintain strict protocols for information security, including secure document storage, encrypted communications, and limited access to client files. All team members understand confidentiality obligations. We're happy to discuss specific concerns you may have about information handling in your particular matter.
