For international commercial enterprises requiring Canadian legal services call 403-400-4092 or email Chris@NeufeldLegal.com
Operating an international business that transacts business in Canada or with Canadians, requires that your commercial operations be compliant with Canadian laws and regulations. Differences in national legal and regulatory systems as they relate to commercial enterprises can be very significant, with the penalties for non-compliance often being very costly, while the correct legal knowledge can prove highly profitable.
As such, it is important that you seek to optimize your financial advantage from the international commercial transactions you are engaging in, whether corporate mergers and acquisitions, joint ventures, partnerships, corporate expansion, importing / exporting, investments or business contracts. Therefore, it is important that your business retains the legal services of an experienced Canadian lawyer, skilled in international business and the variances between national legal systems, and the important legal particularities that exist between Canada's provinces.
The operational dynamics of Canadian law is such that most larger Canadian law firms are largely incapable of rendering the best possible legal advice with respect to a foreign entrant pursuing commercial operations in Canada, since taking that legal position would compromise their legal advice to their existing corporate clients situated in Canada. And because of that legal liability exposure, in our professional opinion, they are unwilling to provide new Canadian business entrants with the best possible legal advice to advance their Canadian commercial enterprise, and instead look to protect their own professional interests by maintaining the status quo with their current corporate clients and failing to render appropriate legal advice to new foreign clients.
After 25 years of legal practice, that would appear to be a pretty audacious statement, let alone a lead-in to our legal practice for international corporate clients seeking to expand their business into Canada. Nevertheless, given that most international corporate clients are seeking the best legal advice, and could care less about protecting a law firm's other corporate clients, or that law firm's legal practices in contravention of the law, they should be looking for a lawyer that will provide the best business transaction and contract legal advice for their business, irrespective of the legal implications to others. And at Neufeld Legal, we are focused on working to assist your expanding business make its Canadian venture a success, as opposed to being an exercise in protecting the legal exposure of unrelated parties.
We take our legal work very seriously, and firmly believe that international corporate clients seeking to expand into Canada must have dedicated legal representation when establishing their Canadian business presence. And unfortunately, there are far too few law firms that are capable of providing such legal representation given the inherent conflicts that they are unwilling to recognize and/or address, and for which your business should not be denied transactional, contractual and operational legal advice that is consistent with the law. That is what your company requires and what our law firm is capable of providing.
As such, when your international business seeks the professional services of an experienced Canadian business lawyer, contact our law firm for a confidential initial consultation at 403-400-4092 or Chris@NeufeldLegal.com.
