Our Approach: We don't just tell you what you can't do - we find practical solutions that work within the law and make business sense.
Living or working between countries creates unique legal situations that most lawyers don't deal with regularly. We do. Whether you're a snowbird splitting time between Canada and somewhere warmer, or you've got property and assets in multiple countries, we help you navigate the legal complexities.

Confidentiality: Everything you tell us stays between us. Your privacy and safety are our top priorities.
Got a job offer or acceptance letter from a Canadian institution? Awesome! Now you just need the legal permission to actually be here.
