Corporate law and business law

Annual Updates

Once incorporated, a corporation has legal obligations, including ensuring the annual updating of government records and holding the annual shareholders’ meeting. It is also essential to oversee the appointment of the company’s directors each year.

Thus, the lawyers at Décarie Lawyers, in collaboration with your accountant, review the transactions that took place during the fiscal year in order to prepare the required resolutions (dividends, bonuses, loans, etc.), and call an annual meeting for this purpose. We also prepare and file the annual return (provincial) and the annual report (federal).
