In-House Tax Planning on Every Deal
Former CRA
Rulings Officer, Now on Your Side
Dental practice sales involve a unique intersection of corporate law, tax planning, regulatory compliance, and healthcare-specific considerations that general business lawyers rarely handle well. We work with selling dentists planning their exit, buyers acquiring their first or next practice, and PE-backed dental service organizations executing multi-location rollups. Because we handle both the legal transaction and the tax structuring in-house, your deal is optimized from day one.
Selling Your Dental Practice
The most valuable tax and legal planning happens before you go to market. We work with selling dentists 1–3 years before a sale to structure the corporation for LCGE eligibility, set up holding companies, and ensure clean governance records. When the deal comes, you keep the maximum amount of what you have built.
Pre-Sale Tax Planning
Structure your professional corporation to qualify for the lifetime capital gains exemption and minimize tax on your practice sale. The planning window is 2+ years.
Valuation & Positioning
Understand what drives practice value and how to position your practice to command the highest price.
Buying a Dental Practice
Whether you are an associate acquiring your first practice or an experienced owner adding a second location, the acquisition process involves financial, legal, operational, and regulatory diligence that must be done right. We guide buyers from LOI through closing, ensuring the deal is structured to protect your investment and set you up for long-term success.
Due Diligence
Financial, operational, legal, and regulatory diligence specific to dental practice acquisitions. Know what you are buying before you commit.
Lease Assignment & Negotiation
The lease is often the most valuable asset in the deal. Assignment rights, renewal terms, exclusivity clauses, and landlord consent.
Dental Rollups & DSO Acquisitions
We currently represent PE-backed funds executing multi-location dental consolidations across Canada. Our rollup experience means efficient site-level diligence, standardized acquisition vehicles, tax-optimized hold structures, and post-closing integration playbooks. We handle the legal and tax on every acquisition in the platform, providing consistency and speed as you scale.
