Frequently asked questions
Have questions? We are here to help.
A legal contract must contain an offer, certainty of terms, intention to create legal relationships, and legality of purpose.
In Australia, business structures include sole traders, partnerships, companies, and trusts. Each of these structures has unique legal, tax and reporting obligations, and depending on your business structure, you may be required to register a business name (if different to your own name) with the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC), obtain an ABN, and register for GST. In addition, certain types of businesses will be required to obtain permits and/or registrations in order to be able to operate, and obtain unique forms of insurance.
This is only part of the overall picture when establishing a business. Working with a commercial lawyer when starting up can help to ensure you are covered on all bases.
