About BTL
Beitel Tax Law assists entrepreneurs and private companies by:
- Representing them in conflicts with the Canada Revenue Agency;
- Designing and executing tax plans; and
- Advising on tax law and tax issues.
Our philosophy is to think less like lawyers and more like entrepreneurs. Therefore the advice we provide to clients is not just about the technical aspects of the law but the practical solutions available. None of our lawyers practice any areas of law other than tax and most have spent their entire careers practicing exclusively in tax.
We have a strong focus on worklife balance and the longterm development of the lawyers at our firm. We have among the lowest billable hour targets in the industry because we want our lawyers to learn train and sharpen their skills on our time rather than theirs. We also have our students at a $0/hour rate enabling them to get exposure to all file types. We have an inhouse mentorship program for our associates and a fulltime practice innovation lawyer focused on adopting new technologies and improving our processes. Additionally all students and associates receive regular coaching from an external writing coach and the firm covers CPA InDepth for associates to ensure lawyers at BTL develop the skills to succeed in the long term.
Even if we dont think like (traditional) lawyers we are still obsessed with the law. Our lawyers have been cited by the Supreme Court of Canada and we publish Beitel Tax Disputes for the Owner Manager quarterly for Thomson Reuters. Our internal chat buzzes throughout the day with indepth discussions of legal ideas strategies and tactics meaning that even if our clients are represented by only one lawyer they benefit from the experience of all.
