Restructure Corporation
"Mary's unique contributions were instrumental in guiding us through the complex process of setting up our company. She ensured that all details were handled precisely and carefully, providing invaluable insights and a comprehensive view from all angles. Her guidance helped us understand the implications of every decision. Mary's dedication was evident throughout our journey. She went above and beyond, adding additional clauses to our founding documents that the online service we initially used did not support. Her expert handling of the filing of amendments ensured our documents were both thorough and legally sound. Her organized approach was particularly impressive; she meticulously organized all of our documents, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. Her knowledge and professionalism gave us the confidence to navigate the daunting incorporation process easily. Having Mary by our side was a true asset."
