Common questions

06

How long does a restructuring engagement typically take?

It depends on the complexity of the structure and the number of parties involved. Simple reorganizations can be completed in a few weeks. More complex structures involving multiple entities, legal coordination, and regulatory filings can take several months.

Do you work with my lawyer?

Yes. Restructuring often requires legal documentation. We coordinate directly with your legal counsel to ensure the tax strategy and legal execution are aligned. If you don't have a lawyer, we can recommend one.

How is this priced?

Restructuring engagements are priced based on scope and complexity. After an initial consultation to understand your situation, we provide a clear quote before any work begins.

Can you restructure if my business is already operating?

Yes. Most restructuring happens with active businesses. The process is designed to minimize disruption while achieving the desired tax and structural outcomes.

What if I'm not sure restructuring is what I need?

That's what the discovery call is for. We'll review your current structure, understand your goals, and tell you whether restructuring makes sense or if there's a simpler path.

Will restructuring trigger any immediate tax consequences?

When done correctly, most restructuring transactions can be completed on a tax-deferred basis. Part of our process is modelling the tax impact before implementation so there are no surprises.
