FREQUENTLY ASKED
Questions we hear every day.
Tax LawDo not respond to CRA directly before speaking with a lawyer. How you respond from the first communication can significantly affect the outcome. Contact us immediately so we can review the notice and manage all correspondence with CRA on your behalf.
Tax LawYou have 90 days from the date of the notice to file a Notice of Objection. If unsuccessful, you can appeal to the Tax Court of Canada and ultimately to the Federal Court of Appeal. We handle the full dispute process from the objection stage through to judicial review.
Corporate LawIf your corporation has more than one shareholder, a shareholders' agreement is strongly recommended. It governs how decisions are made, how shares are valued, and what occurs on the death or incapacity of a shareholder. Without one, disputes are resolved by default corporate law rules.
Wills & EstatesYour estate is distributed according to the Succession Law Reform Act — not according to your wishes. There is no provision for common-law partners, and the court will appoint an administrator through a costly process. A properly drafted will eliminates this uncertainty entirely.
Real Estate LawBuyers should budget for Land Transfer Tax, legal fees and disbursements, title insurance, home inspection, and closing adjustments. First-time buyers may qualify for a Land Transfer Tax rebate. We provide a full closing cost estimate at the outset of every transaction.
Federal CourtMany CRA administrative decisions — including taxpayer relief decisions, benefit eligibility determinations, and collection matters — can be challenged by way of judicial review in the Federal Court. We advise on the correct forum and manage Federal Court applications where appropriate.
