Professional Corporations

A professional corporation is a corporation engaged in providing professional services where a member of a profession governed by its professional body allows its members to practice through a corporation as opposed to a sole proprietorship or partnership. Each professional governing body may have its own set of rules requiring certain formalities to be respected. Below are the typical requirements of professional corporations. However, it is suggested that you contact your governing body before you proceed with the incorporation of a professional corporation.

Which professions can incorporate a professional corporation? Legislation typically requires that only those professions that are governed by a professional governing body or association as provided by law can incorporate a professional corporation. Each province has different laws and rules as to which professions have these governing bodies. Generally, professions that can incorporate a professional corporation include: Accountants, Architects, Attorneys, Physicians, Dentists, Veterinarians and Engineers among others.

Formation and Operation A professional corporation resembles a business corporation, requiring compliance with corporate law and the rules and regulations of professional licensing bodies. A professional corporation is formed in the same manner as a business corporation, except that it typically has one or several of the following additional limitations, depending on the jurisdiction: All shares of stock of the corporation (or a minimum percentage) must be owned and held by individuals licensed in the profession of the corporation. At least one incorporator must be licensed in the profession. At least one director (or a majority, or even exclusively) must be licensed in the profession. The articles of incorporation, in addition to all other requirements, must limit the activities of the corporation to the profession. The professional corporation may be required to obtain from the appropriate professional body a certification that the shares of stock are owned by individuals who are duly licensed in the profession. Professional corporations are typically required to use the name of the professional as part of the corporate name. They are also required to have the words "Professional Corporation" as part of its legal name. Moreover, the professional corporation may be required to obtain a certificate of registration from the professional body finding that no disciplinary action is pending before the professional body against any of the licensed directors, shareholders, or employees of the corporation. The certificate of registration may be required to be renewed as often as required by law or by the regulations of the professional body. Professional corporations may be subject to additional limitations and regulations imposed by their respective professional bodies.

Liability Issues A professional corporation offers its shareholders limited liability in certain areas. Generally, a shareholder is liable for the debts and liabilities of the corporation to the extent of his or her investment. Personal assets usually are not at risk. Exceptions include: The shareholder personally guarantees a business debt. Piercing of the corporate veil. Professional malpractice. Liability for professional malpractice is typically limited to three circumstances: (a) the liability arises from the malpractice of the individual owner; (b) The individual owner supervised or directed the person who committed the malpractice; or (c) the individual owner was directly involved in the specific activity which resulted in the malpractice. Officers, directors, employees, and agents of the corporation may be held personally responsible for liabilities arising out of their services to the corporation. The corporation may indemnify its officers, directors, employees, and agents for costs and expenses incurred as a result of such liabilities. Also, the corporation may buy insurance covering its officers, directors, employees, and agents for liabilities arising out of their services to the corporation. If the business poses a threat of personal injury or property damage, limited liability may be important. However, adequate business insurance is essential to protect the business from overwhelming legal liabilities resulting from personal injury or property damage.

Period of Existence A professional corporation has a less stable business life than a business corporation due to the dependence on its members. For example: The death or disqualification of a shareholder or employee may result in the dissolution of the corporation. If a licensed officer, shareholder, agent, or employee of a professional corporation becomes disqualified to provide professional services, he or she must sever all employment with and financial interest in the corporation. Failure to comply may be grounds for forfeiture of the corporation's certificate of incorporation and its dissolution. A professional corporation must report the death of a shareholder to the appropriate professional body within 30 days of the date of death. Within one year, all shares owned by the deceased shareholder must be acquired by the professional corporation or by persons qualified to own them. A professional body may suspend or revoke the certificate of registration of the professional corporation if : The corporation fails to remove or discharge an officer, director, shareholder, or employee whose license to practice is suspended or revoked. The professional corporation has failed to comply with provisions of the Professional Corporation Act or the regulations of the professional body. If the certificate of registration is suspended or revoked, the corporation must stop providing professional services, and the Secretary of State will remove the corporation from active status.

Named vs. Numbered Corporations

Choosing a name for your business can be a tough task. Not only do you need to come up with something distinctive and original that describes your company, you also have to make sure that the name isn’t similar to any other named corporation out there. Each jurisdiction has its own set of requirements for names and this can lead to a frustrating process.  Sometimes your first choice just doesn’t cut it and you have to go back to the drawing board.

 Numbered corporations allow you avoid delays and expense involved in searching for and reserving a corporate name. So if you need to incorporate quickly, this is a good option. You would be required to use your incorporated number for any legal matters or relations (i.e. contracts, government filings), but you are able to register a trade name and be known to your customers as operating under such trade name. Or, you can always file Articles of Amendment at a later time to change from a numbered to a named corporation.

If you’re set on having a named corporation, make sure you have at least 3 possible options for your name.  Don’t put all your eggs in one basket or the outcome may be very disappointing! Having variations of your name submitted allows for a better chance that at least one will be approved and you’ll avoid the back and forth paperwork, time and expense of re-submitting names. Stay tuned for our blog post on how to choose a corporate name, for tips on best practices when coming up with a name that suits your business AND the legal requirements.

There are positives and negatives to choosing between a named and numbered corporation and it is dependent upon the objectives of the business and its shareholders. For the best outcome, weigh your options carefully and create a plan of attack before you begin.

The Nuance of NUANS

Your name can mean everything. It is what people associate with your brand and it is what will inevitably define your business in the minds of others. Therefore, it is imperative that you choose a name for your business that is original and that will stick in the minds of your target clientele. It is also important that once you have the perfect name for your business, that you protect it so that people don’t confuse your business with someone else’s. Below are some of the finer points of what one can expect when using NUANS (Newly Upgraded Automated Name Search) for registering or incorporating their business.

Not all provinces are created equal

No matter which province you live in, you will need to file a name search report. But, depending on where you live, you may have to file a name search report within your own province’s database. What NUANS actually refers to is a database for the following jurisdictions: P.E.I., Nova Scotia, New Brunswick, Ontario and Alberta, as well as the database of Canadian Federal Corporations. If you are registering your business in Quebec, for example, you don’t need to conduct a NUANS report, but you can if you wish. Doing so will give you an insight into whether or not someone has registered a business with the same, or similar, name as yours in another province, specifically those included in the NUANS database.

Don’t forget that no matter what insight you glean from any name search report that you are ultimately responsible for ensuring that your company name does not infringe on any third party rights.

The varied depths of NUANS search

Filing a NUANS report carries with it a fee to conduct the report. As a cost saving mechanism, it is possible to conduct a preliminary report at the fraction of the cost of a full report – a preliminary search costs about $0.23. However, the preliminary report only eliminates proposed names with exact matches to the names of other companies. A full NUANS report provides an even greater depth of insight by reporting company names that may be close, or could even illicit confusion, but costs significantly more and is required to register your business within the given jurisdiction. The reason a preliminary report can be beneficial is by allowing you to quickly ascertain whether or not a certain company name is available or not without the commitment of a full NUANS report. If you are satisfied with your company name, and its availability, you can then file for a full report and register your business.

Ordering a NUANS search report

Although there does exist a NUANS self-serve website, it is preferable in most cases to obtain your NUANS search report with the assistance of a NUANS registered member. The reason for this is that the self-serve website is limited to conducting NUANS reports for federal corporations. On the other hand, there are a variety of NUANS registered members available to you that are capable of not only filing the search report, but also of guiding you through the process of registering your company. 

Please visit CorporationCentre.ca for more information and to order your NUANS Report!

Ways to Save On Startup Legal Fees

If you're starting up a business there will come a time when a good lawyer will be your best friend. However, that doesn't mean you need to utilize their bill-by-the-minute services for every legal decision you make. There are ways to avoid legal fees. Consider these options:

Go Boilerplate

If you've ever signed a renter's agreement for an apartment you were probably using a boilerplate contract. This is a template agreement already drawn up by a lawyer and is readily accepted by both sides. You might find that many of business contracts can use boilerplates that are available for free on many online legal resources sites. These contracts can include:

• Commercial building lease agreements
• Employee contracts
• Vendor agreements
• Non-disclosure agreements

Just because you're using a boilerplate contract doesn't mean you can't put in your own terms, dates and names. That's what these contracts were created for. Here's a dirty little secret: You know that expensive lawyer you hire to write up your contracts? They use the same boilerplates. You didn't think they wrote every word of a new contract did you?

Ask For a Fixed Fee

Much like the boilerplate contracts, there are also boilerplate services. Filing for a trademark or setting up a corporation are pretty much routine. The only changes that are made are the names in each of the contracts.

Does this mean you should be paying a lawyer by the hour to get those papers in order?

Not at all.

Ask around and see if you can find a lawyer to handle those kind of for a fixed fee. That means whether it takes them two or 20 hours it will only cost you one price

.

You could also offer stock options in exchange for legal services. The caution with that is giving away too much for the kind of "simple work" mentioned above. Your new investors might not be happy about that.

And, if you want to avoid hiring a lawyer for basic corporate services, consider using a document filing service (like CorporationCentre.ca!) to submit your paperwork at a much smaller fee than a lawyer may charge.

Part-Time Lawyer

You might find that after your initial start-up filings you don't need a lawyer all that much. However, you're now stuck paying a hefty monthly retainer to a law firm. Not a wise move.

Instead, look for a firm that can provide you with a part-time attorney. This is someone you can talk to once a week for a reduced fee. Save up your questions and make that weekly meeting count. You can also look into legal insurance. You pay a small premium in exchange for getting a lawyer only when you need them. That's a lot less than the big retainer fee.

If you should ever come across a complicated issue with taxes or find yourself being sued then you don't want to turn that into a DIY legal matter. Get a good lawyer on your side. For everything else, look for flexible options from your legal firm.

Things to Consider When Incorporating Your Business

Incorporating your business in Canada can provide you with a level of protection in terms of liability. It can also show potential investors that you're serious about handling your business in a professional manner. Before you enter into the incorporation process there are many factors you'll want to consider. 

Will I be able to conduct business throughout the country?

If you make your company a federally incorporated company then you'll be able to conduct business across all of Canada. On the other hand, a corporation who files under OBCA is restricted to doing business in Ontario exclusively, unless it obtains additional licenses. Understand that choosing between a provincial or federal incorporation would depend on the type of business that you run and your vision for the future.

What are all the filing requirements?

As a corporation you'll have to follow the laws of "general application, requiring registration, returns and/or fees" as they apply to each particular province. These requirements are all contained in the CBCA provisions. Additionally, any time there is a change in your corporation you'll need to make necessary filings. There are other restrictions under the Business Names Act which pertains to the name you can select for your company.  

Where can I hold my board of director's meetings?

If you are a federal corporation you can hold those meetings anywhere in Canada. With a provincial corporation those meetings must be held within your province. These requirements should be spelled out in the filing papers.

Filing for incorporation will require you to look ahead to the future of your business. It might seem less costly to do the minimum amount of legal work for a "simple" incorporation application. That approach could come back to haunt you when your business takes off and you look to expand throughout the country. There will be a lot of effort going into your incorporation filing. Make sure you explore all your options to ensure the greater potential for success. In other words, cover all the bases ahead of time and you'll come out on top!

Issuing Shares for Your Corporation

If you are approaching the phase of your business where incorporation is the next move then congratulations!

This is a positive step towards expanding your business and bringing in an infusion of cash.

Every province will have their own distinct set of rules for articles of incorporation. Some of these "zones" are more corporation friendly than other regions. No matter where you land, you'll more than likely be required to write up bylaws, explain the roles on your board of directors and their responsibilities and issue stock.

Questions such as: how many shares should be authorized for an incorporation? Who should be listed as officers and directors? How many shares should be created?

You'll have to look at the big picture of your business for the right answer.

Millions of Shares

Every single stock certificate represents a piece of the company. The owner of that stock is entitled to a dividend based on the stock's performance and the amount of stocks they own. A typical offering of common stock could be anywhere between 10 to 15 million shares.

You can break this down as 8 million shares divided among the founders and 2 million shares for an option pool. The rest can be held in reserved and released down the road. Whatever amount you settle on for the initial release you have to stick to the number.

If you want to increase the amount of shares available that will have to be put to a vote by the board of directors and shareholders because they are all now part-owners.

That first number of shares is also important when you are considering offering them as employee incentives. In other words, you don't want to give everything away all at once and you want to make the incentive large enough to attract good talent.

Stocks for the Small Business Owner

Set aside the headline grabbing IPOs like Facebook or Yahoo. The typical startup can have a stock price share beginning at around $15. Add them up to 20 million shares and you've got a $300 million market cap. That would be an extremely successful IPO launch. It also allows for plenty of buffer room that can prevent stocks from splitting at the time of the launch.

From a small business perspective, you can incorporate your company and issue a single share of stock. Keep in mind that the more shares you do end up issuing the more you'll pay in corporation filing fees.

Before making that call, plot out where you see your business in 5, 10 and 20 years from now. If it's just going to be you and your family running things you might not need to go big. However, if you're goal is to go global, let your stock offering reflect that plan.

Is Buying a Shelf Company a Good Strategy?

As a startup business owner you might find yourself overwhelmed by all the new information you need to assimilate. This is especially true if you have designs incorporating your business and eventually taking it public. Just because you’re starting a business doesn’t automatically mean you need a business degree, but it will help to familiarize yourself with the basics. One business model concept you should be looking into is whether or not to buy a Shelf Company as part of your business strategy.

So, what exactly is a Shelf Corporation?

A Shelf Corporation or Aged Corporation is an official corporation that has been created but is not being used by that creator. There are many reasons why a corporation could still be idle but that doesn’t mean they don’t have any inherent value. Think of these as “instant” corporations as it pertains to helping your business start up. How can your business benefit from taking over a Shelf Corporation? Consider the following:

·         Time Saver

Buying a Shelf Corporation allows your business to get up and running a lot faster. The incorporation process can often drag on for months. With a Shelf Corporation that work has already been done. It would be like stepping into a franchise business. All the equipment and supplies have been purchased; you’re just taking over control.

·         Faster Access to Credit

Many vendors would prefer to do business with an established corporation. Therefore, a new startup might find obtaining lines of credit a challenge. An additional hurdle for a new business is being asked to provide a personal guarantee for loan. That could greatly hinder your chances to secure immediate financing. A Shelf Corporation can establish the kind of corporate longevity that can open up a lot more credit possibilities.

·         Instant Credibility

A Shelf Corporation allows your business to obtain instant credibility. This is important to potential investors. You’re not fooling anyone because the history of the corporation will be a matter of record. Instead, you’re stepping up your professional game and establishing your credentials.

·         Access To Government Contracts

Depending on your business, you might have the opportunity to do work for the government whether that is a local municipality or on a national level. These can be a very lucrative asset for your business. However, some government agencies require a business to be already be operational for a specific amount of time. You can meet that requirement with a Shelf Corporation.

Federal vs. Provincial Incorporation

 What's the ideal structure for your new company?

There are two types of incorporation available for new businesses in Canada;

1)      provincial incorporation

2)      and federal incorporation

The difference between the two types of incorporation lies in whether you want to do business locally or nationally. With a federal incorporation, you will have better protection of your brand and the ability to do business all across Canada even though there may be a business with the same name in a province.

 

With provincial incorporation, you can only operate in the province that you’ve incorporated in. This means that your brand is not protected outside of your province. This does not restrict you from doing business with companies in other provinces, however, you won’t be able to protect your name outside of your province or territory.

There are a couple of downsides to federal incorporation though.

 

·         First, federal incorporation involves more paperwork to be filed every year as required by the Canadian Government and also provincial filings in the province that you’re registered in.

 

·         Secondly, federal incorporation costs more. The fee for filing federal Articles of Incorporation is $200, as well as the additional fees from name search reports and registering your company in province.  Also, the ongoing paperwork each year will cost you more than maintaining your provincial incorporation.

If you plan to be a small business - operating locally, it makes no sense to spend the money to do a federal incorporation. However, if you’re a business that has clients across the nation and even in other countries, it would be a good idea to do a federal incorporation.  If you’re an ecommerce business, where you don’t need a physical location to do business, you don’t need to be federally incorporated if you’re just operating from one province.  You can always be provincially incorporated now and then change to a federal incorporation later as your business grows.

Why Should You Incorporate Your Company?

There are many reasons for incorporating but the most important to consider are the benefits of incorporating and the implications that it may have for your business. A quick examination of all the benefits to be derived from incorporating will reveal that the best time is when you are actually taking your startup business from inception to reality. Consider all of these corporate advantages:

1.      Limited Liability

Incorporating your business is really about protecting your personal assets. Anyone who starts up a business will find it taking up a major portion of their time but that doesn’t mean you have to assume a total risk with everything you own. By incorporating your business you are drawing a clear line between your personal asset and the assets of the company. That way if anything should go wrong with the company, you’ll still have your personal property. It’s important to keep those two aspects of your life separate.

2.      Attracting Investors

When you incorporate your business you’re also telling potential investors that you’re serious about your company’s future. That is going to make getting money from investors a lot easier. Any investor will be taking a risk by giving you capital. You can make them feel more confident with a professional approach to your business plan through incorporation.

3.      Tax Issues

Just as incorporating your business will protect your personal assets it can also help improve your tax filing status. With a corporation, you have the ability to defer paying taxes to a time during the fiscal year which will be more beneficial. This also applies when you accept an income. The goal should be to work with your accountant to find a proactive way to reduce your tax burden which can ultimately allow you to reinvest in the business. There are also a wide range of small business tax deductions which can help you make improvements but they would only apply to a business that has been incorporated.

4.      Better Client Prospects

If an investor feels better investing in a corporation then a potential client will also share those feelings of confidence in your business. Incorporating your business projects a level of stability to customers. They know they’re not dealing with some “fly-by-night” organization but someone who is in for the long haul of providing service.

5.      Corporate Legacy

For all practical purposes, a corporation is a legal entity that can far outlive the lives of its founders. When you can move your company into the realm of Fortune 500 type of businesses then the hope is that they’ll be around long after the original board has gone onto greener pastures. A corporation is about longevity which is exactly what you should be focused on for your new business.

Small Business Focus – Shift Space Inc.

CorporationCentre.ca was established to help entrepreneurs and small business owners get their government and administrative filing done quickly and efficiently so that they have the time and energy to focus on growing their business. Over the years we've incorporated thousands of new businesses and have had a chance to watch them flourish and grow. Here is just one example of two entrepreneurs that incorporated their business with CorporationCentre.ca and have found great success with their company.

Shift Space Inc. is a Montreal- based communications company that gives people from various backgrounds the tools to communicate differently and effectively by providing workshops and services for individual and corporate development. Shift Space wants to focus on bridging the gap between the artistic and corporate worlds by teaching their clients new and creative forms of communication.

Shift Space was started 15 years ago by Lisa Kagan and Liz Valdez. They had been working at the local universities in Montreal, using their theatre-based training tools to help students develop their own communication skills.  Lisa recalls that their decision to go into business together was an easy one to make: “One day I just woke up and said ‘Liz – it’s time.’” After over 20 years of friendship the two women take a leap of faith, leave their jobs, and go off on their own path. And they haven’t stopped since.

Over time, Shift Space has grown from not only providing workshops and training sessions, but also by sharing a networking centre, bringing together groups from various communities, businesses, and fields. From this, Lisa and Liz are seeing new relationships growing in unexpected ways - musicians, artists, entrepreneurs, professionals and students are coming together to better human interaction and communication.

Much of what makes Shift Space so successful is the actual space it inhabits. An open and fluid area conveniently located in downtown Montreal, the “blank slate” space is designed to satisfy the needs of anyone using it, whether it be artists or professionals – or both!  Shift Space is continuously offering exciting programs and workshops targeted to anyone who wants to improve their communication skills in a new way. With their Montreal presence established, Lisa and Liz say that they are happy to travel to provide their services to those that can’t come to them.  They are striving towards setting the standard internationally for communication-based training – and they are well on their way.
