Client Reviews Business Ontario
Incorporated a professional corporation (law firm) with business-ontario.ca. Their article of corporation pretty standard one with no restrictions on it. I was kind of worried, but after service seems they have excellent lawyers. Great job.
I am fully satisfied with their service.
The team is very responsive, handled all transactions without error, and delivered required documents faster than expected. I had a last minute issue (my fault) that may have negatively impacted an important business transaction - I explained the situation and the Business Ontario team made it a priority and was able to resolve and expedite in near real time - saving me time and dollars.
Your customer focus and professionalism is much appreciated!
