What is Corporate Law?
Corporate law governs the formation, operation, and management of businesses. It includes corporate governance, ensuring businesses meet legal requirements, protecting shareholder interests, managing risks, and assisting with commercial transactions. It also involves dispute resolution for businesses facing conflicts.
In Australia, the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth) is the primary legislation regulating companies. Corporate lawyers ensure businesses meet their legal obligations under this Act, helping ensure long-term success.
