Professional Corporations
Professional Corporations are a different breed entirely and establishing one has its own unique set of rules, permissions and legalities. Not only does an Ontario Professional Corporation have to comply with the Business Corporations Act (Ontario), RSO 1990, c.B16, but also with the College or governing body of your profession. Branton Law has extensive experience navigating these waters. Over the years we’ve dealt with the Law Society of Ontario, and virtually all the colleges associated with dental, health and Para health professions from doctors and surgeons to dentists, RMTs, and physiotherapists.
Having Branton Law complete all the various application materials on your behalf means you have a single point of contact throughout the process.
