Corporate Law
Our Corporate Law practice is focused on helping businesses build a strong legal foundation.

Wrongful Dismissal Lawyer
Losing your job can be stressful, especially if you are unsure whether your termination package is fair or whether your employer followed the proper process. Wrongful dismissal is often referred to as termination without cause, and some employment situations may also be classified as constructive dismissal, where an employer makes significant changes to the terms of employment that leave the employee with little choice but to resign.
We can assist with reviewing severance packages, employment agreements, termination clauses, workplace policies, and the circumstances surrounding your dismissal. Our goal is to help you understand your position and pursue a fair outcome.
Kunyk Law also advises employers on employment matters, helping businesses manage risk, respond appropriately to workplace issues, and approach dismissals with care and compliance.
Legal Support for Every Stage of Business
Your legal needs will change as your business develops. A new business may need help choosing the right structure, incorporating, preparing bylaws, or setting expectations between owners. A growing business may require contracts, employment policies, shareholder agreements, or risk management advice. A more established business may need support with transactions, disputes, succession planning, or regulatory obligations.
Kunyk Law provides guidance that reflects where your business is today and where you want it to go. We work to understand your goals, identify legal considerations, and provide practical advice that supports confident decision-making.
Clear Guidance From Start to Finish
Corporate and commercial legal matters can involve important decisions, detailed documentation, and long-term consequences. Kunyk Law helps make the process more manageable by providing clear guidance at each stage.
1. Understand Your Business
We begin by learning about your business, goals, ownership structure, concerns, and current legal needs. This helps us provide advice that is specific to your situation.
2. Identify Key Legal Considerations
We review the legal issues involved and help you understand your options, risks, and obligations. Our focus is on giving you practical advice in clear, straightforward language.
3. Prepare or Review Documents
We assist with preparing, reviewing, or negotiating the documents required to move your matter forward, including agreements, corporate records, governance documents, or transaction materials.
4. Support Your Next Steps
Whether you are launching, growing, restructuring, resolving a dispute, or planning for succession, we help you take the appropriate next steps with confidence.
When to Speak With a Business Lawyer
Legal support can be valuable before a problem arises, not only after one has already occurred. Speaking with a lawyer early can help your business avoid uncertainty, reduce risk, and build a stronger foundation for future growth.
You may benefit from corporate or commercial legal advice if:
- You are starting or incorporating a business
- You are entering into a new business relationship
- You need a contract drafted or reviewed
- You are bringing on shareholders, partners, or investors
- You are buying, selling, restructuring, or winding down a business
- You need employment agreements, policies, or severance advice
- You are dealing with a shareholder, contractual, or employment dispute
- You want to plan for business succession or transition
