About Commercial Law

Commercial law or business law is the body of law which governs business and commerce and is often considered to be a branch of civil law.

Commercial law deals both with issues of private law and public law. Commercial law regulates corporate contracts, hiring practices, and the manufacture and sales of consumer goods. Many countries have adopted civil codes which contain comprehensive statements of their commercial law.

In Australia, commercial law is the province of both federal and state legislation, in addition to precedent-based Common Law.

Various regulatory schemes control how commerce is conducted, for example privacy laws, workplace safety laws, food safety regulations.

It is strongly recommended to consult a Commercial Law Practitioner before engaging in any business activity.
