What we offer
TMT Law represents a full range of businesses and handles transactions of all sizes with a consistent level of attention to detail, client-service, efficiency, and deep understanding of our clients’ objectives. We take a practical and flexible approach to assisting our clients with various types of business transactions.
TMT Law can assist clients during all stages of the entity life-cycles: from formation, to operation, to expansion via merger or acquisition, and dissolution. This includes incorporations, partnership and joint venture agreements, tech financing, mergers and acquisitions, licensing, non-disclosure agreements and procurement. For those businesses that would benefit from an-in-house lawyer, but do not have enough volume of legal work to justify hiring one, we also offer General Counsel Services.
TMT Law offers a range of services centered on the acquisition and enforcement of intellectual property assets for start-ups and emerging growth companies. This includes IP asset identification, prosecution of patents and trademarks, copyright advice and clearance services, licensing transactions and technology transfers. We can also assist clients with IP portfolio valuation, management and marketplace monitoring.
TMT Law provides a full range of regulatory and government relations services. We advocate our client’s positions before administrative agencies such as the CRTC, Copyright Board, Industry Canada and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner.
We also represent clients in policy and regulatory consultations held by government departments or parliamentary committees, both at the federal and provincial levels. TMT Law also advises clients on CRTC. copyright, PIPEDA, export controls, cybersecurity and copyright compliance.
Many small or medium-size businesses would benefit from an-in-house lawyer, but do not have enough volume of legal work to justify hiring one. These businesses often need only 1/4 or 1/5 of an in-house lawyer. In order to help these companies, TMT Law offers three General Counsel Service packages:
START-UP
PACKAGE
$1400 per month
The lawyer works at
the client's premises
one hour per
week or half a day per
month (4 hours).
SCALE UP
PACKAGE
$2400 per month
The lawyer works at
the client's premises for
two hours per
week or one day per
month (8 hours).
PRE-IPO

ENTERPRISE
PACKAGE
$6400 per month

the client's premises for

This time can be used to get any general counsel service, including contract drafting and other projects. By providing clients with a fixed cost, we aim to incentivize them to seek our advice as situations develop, but before possible problems become real and, possibly, disastrous problems. To ensure that the fees are appropriately set, we suggest a review of the amount every 3 or 4 months.
