Business transactions and advice including business structures, acquisitions and disposals.
Our law firm is proudly multicultural, and multilingual. Our lawyers are always comfortable giving legal advice to business owners who have English as a second language.
Are you starting a business? Do you need legal advice for your existing small business? Are you looking to buy a business or sell your business? In all these cases, our lawyers can assist you with everything from preparing your business documents (e.g. the purchase/sale contract, commercial lease), negotiating the terms of your purchase or sale, liaising with external service providers and agents, advising you about what governmental searches are necessary and which are optional, and then, to taking the transaction through to a successful conclusion.
We know how small business works and how different cultures prioritise different aspects of business and outcomes. We know what Australian laws apply to different businesses and we look forward to assisting our clients to reach practical legal solutions.
Our lawyers are highly experienced in providing a range of advice to support you in your business endeavours.
There are many types of business entity or structure, and the one suitable for your new business venture will depend on your intentions, budget and taxation status. It may be a partnership, joint venture, trust, franchise, or sole tradership. We will liaise with your accountant or business advisor if necessary, especially concerning tax implications. Similarly, if your current business must be restructured or you need to sell it in some form, we are able to advise you in that respect as well.
We have 20 years of experience in drafting contracts, agreements and deeds. You will need at least one of these documents for the purchase or sale of a business, the start of a franchise, importing, exporting or supplying goods or services, or recording your agreement with special conditions that protect your interests and minimise your risk.
In addition to the importance of the right documentation, you will need to consider:
