Incorporating for consulting work: Lawyer up or do it yourself?
For those of you who have incorporated your own business for consulting work (I'd specifically be doing it for oil and gas engineering) would you recommend hiring a lawyer to set up the corp and do annual returns or would you do it yourself at the registries?
I am toying with the idea of maybe doing something like this but am trying to wrap my head around my different options I have to get set up. I've always just been an employee so I am learning as much as possible now about what to do if I go another direction.
For those of you who recommend going the lawyer route do you have any recommendations on lawyers I should try and see? Even if its just to pay for a few hours to explain the legal implications of either method I am sure that would be beneficial too. Feel free to PM me if you wish.
