ADD ME TO THE WAITLIST!Been putting off the legal stuff?
I don't blame you. The legal stuff can be confusing, overwhelming and not well explained for business owners
A good Google search or a few YouTube videos can solve many problems and answer many questions in 2023.
But there is not a lot of great practical legal information on the web for Canadians. Particularly if you are running a business online.
Many lawyers write as if they are writing for other lawyers (or judges). Say what?
And most legal websites and articles you will find are intended for our US cousins to the south. We KNOW that we are different here in Canada right?
There are so many things to do as the owner of a business.
Sometimes important things have to wait a bit. But no more.
I live in a province (Nova Scotia) where people have been searching for the Oak Island treasure for more than 200 years.
You finding me may not be QUITE as exciting for you as finding treasure, but I am excited your search led you here.
Stop worrying about whether what you have patched together is good enough. And no more waking up at night wondering what you missed.
Imagine you could feel more confident and solid doing these things in your business.
Send Contracts

How much it would cost $$$ if you hired a lawyer?
Lawyers generally charge by the hour and often in increments of 0.1 hours. An experienced Canadian business lawyer charges from $250 to $500 per hour or more!
People have told me that they have spent $1 to $2k for one contract. And they had to explain the online world or their industry.
Doing some DIY-ing with me as your experienced legal guide will save you SO MUCH $$$.
I am a bit of a unicorn 🦄.
I have been a business lawyer for 21 years and am an online business owner and content creator.

It was so simple to just plug-and-play my information into the templates. While there seems to be plenty of these legal templates available to Americans, I felt more confident having something built specifically for Canadian-based online businesses. It was exactly what I needed. Corinne gets the specific needs that online business owners have and delivers exactly that - no more, no less. That means no confusing legal jargon, no overwhelming product suite. Simple, clear, easy-to-implement.

When starting a business, there are a lot it things to stress about and something we found particularly stressful was the legal side of things. When we found Corinne, it was a no brainer that we would invest in a package that fit our needs. The courses are on kajabi, which is very user friendly platform and the videos provided a really good explanations. Corinne really is a super woman when it comes to legal things, and as a business just starting out with limited funds, I can say our investment in Corinne's legal package was well worth the money! Thank you, Corinne, for taking the time to share your wealth of knowledge and giving us all the tools to keep our business as safe as possible!
