Built by a Canadian founder's lawyer.
Manoug Alemian founded Alem Legal with a simple idea: Canadian legal services for startups and growing businesses should be transparent, accessible, and actually useful to the people building companies in Ontario, Quebec, and across Canada.

A transparent, modern Canadian law firm — built around startup founders.
Manoug Alemian is the founder and principal lawyer at Alem Legal Inc. He is licensed to practice law in both Ontario and Quebec, and works as a Canadian startup and business lawyer with founders, entrepreneurs, and growing companies across Canada in English, French, and Armenian.
Since 2020, Manoug has acted as external Canadian legal counsel on corporate, commercial, M&A, and financing mandates — advising clients from pre-incorporation through exit. His clients have included SaaS companies, automotive AI ventures, real estate businesses, and manufacturing companies in Ontario, Quebec, and beyond.
Alem Legal is a fully digital, fixed-fee Canadian law firm built around how startup founders and growing businesses actually work — with transparent pricing, plain-language advice, and no billing surprises.
