Tax Planning and Preparation

Our core services in tax are what you would expect of a firm that aims to serve Canadian businesses. We offer the confidence of working directly with the partners in our firm, ensuring continuity of contact over the years.

But we go further than that, and offer more:

  • An international connection to support businesses looking outside Canada for new markets or new partners;
  • the ability to work alongside our clients as professional advisors;
  • expertise in computer systems and applications to help our clients take full advantage of today's technology, including EDI;
  • an affiliation with an investment banking partner;
  • personal services that include tax minimization strategies;
  • estate and retirement planning.

MSCM LLP's tax specialists work with each client to develop the most effective planning strategies to minimize taxes. You will be kept abreast of the ever-changing tax laws, and these changes will be related to your plans and objectives.

In addition, years of experience in estate, trust and tax planning can help ensure that your family's security is protected.
