Corporations
Incorporation, SEC registration and compliance, corporate housekeeping, and intra-corporate disputes.
Whether you are starting a business as a corporation or managing an existing one, there are rules on registration, governance and reporting to follow. We assist founders, boards and stockholders with corporate legal work.
How we can help
- Incorporation and SEC registration, including One Person Corporations
- Articles of incorporation, by-laws and their amendments
- Board and stockholders' meetings, minutes, resolutions and secretary's certificates
- Annual SEC reportorial requirements, such as the General Information Sheet (GIS)

How it usually proceeds
- Planning. We discuss the business, the owners and the right corporate structure.
- Documents. We prepare the articles of incorporation, by-laws and supporting documents.
- Registration. The documents are filed with the SEC, followed by registration with the BIR, the LGU and other agencies.
- Ongoing compliance. We assist with annual reports, meetings and changes in the corporation.
