Compass Tax Law – Calgary, AB

Navigating the Complexities of Tax Law

Compass Tax Law is a specialized boutique law firm in Calgary dedicated exclusively to the practice of tax law. Established in 1990 (originally as CompassTAX), our firm has spent decades helping individuals and corporations navigate the intricate and often intimidating world of Canadian and international taxation. We are not generalists; we are experts who focus entirely on tax matters, giving us a depth of knowledge that few other firms can match. Whether you are facing a dispute with the Canada Revenue Agency (CRA), planning a complex corporate reorganization, or managing the tax implications of moving abroad, our team provides the sophisticated legal guidance you need. We understand that tax issues can be stressful and financially significant, which is why we are committed to finding practical, effective solutions that protect your assets and minimize your liabilities.

Specialized Tax Services

Our practice covers the full spectrum of tax law, from planning to dispute resolution:

• CRA Disputes and Audits: If you are being audited or have received a reassessment, do not face the CRA alone. We represent clients at all stages of the dispute process, from filing notices of objection to appearing before the Tax Court of Canada. We work to negotiate settlements that reduce penalties and interest.
• International and Cross-Border Tax: We specialize in helping expatriates and businesses with global mobility. If you are moving to or from Canada, or if your business is expanding internationally, we ensure you remain compliant while optimizing your tax position.
• Corporate Tax Planning: We assist businesses with tax-efficient structuring, mergers and acquisitions, and succession planning. Our goal is to help you keep more of what you earn through strategic legal planning.
• Voluntary Disclosures: If you have made mistakes on past tax returns, the Voluntary Disclosures Program (VDP) may allow you to correct them without facing prosecution or severe penalties. We can guide you through this delicate process.
