At Velocity Legal, our corporate law firm works with private companies, business owners, and entrepreneurs across a range of industries. Our services include:
- Business structuring: Choosing the right legal structure for your business has long-term implications for tax, liability, and governance. Our corporate lawyers advise on the most appropriate structure for your circumstances, whether that involves a company, trust, partnership, or combination of entities, and on how to restructure existing arrangements as your business evolves. Our in-house tax capability means structuring advice takes into account both the legal and tax dimensions from the outset.
- Mergers and acquisitions: We advise buyers and sellers on business sales, acquisitions, and mergers. This includes due diligence, deal structuring, negotiation, and documentation. Having experienced lawyers involved from an early stage helps manage risk and keep the transaction on track. For more detail, see our business sale lawyers page.
- Commercial contracts: Business relationships should be properly documented. Our expert lawyers draft and review a wide range of commercial contracts, including supply agreements, service agreements, joint venture arrangements, shareholder agreements, and non-disclosure agreements. Clear, well-drafted contracts reduce the scope for disputes and make it easier to enforce your position if something goes wrong.
- Regulatory compliance: Businesses operating in Australia are subject to a range of Commonwealth and state legal obligations, including consumer law, privacy law, workplace laws, and industry-specific regulatory requirements. In corporate law, a lawyer advises on applicable obligations and helps businesses identify and manage compliance risks before they become problems.
- Dispute resolution: Commercial disputes can arise from contractual breaches, shareholder disagreements, employment issues, or regulatory matters. We advise on rights and obligations, assist with negotiation and mediation, and represent clients in litigation where required. Our focus is on resolving disputes efficiently and with as little disruption to your business as possible.
- Shareholder and governance matters: We advise on shareholder agreements, company constitutions, director duties, and governance arrangements. Getting these foundations right is important, particularly for businesses with multiple shareholders or complex ownership structures.
