Business Law

What Is Business Law?

Business Law (also known as Commercial Law) is the body of law that presides over both business and commerce. Business Law is often considered to be a branch of civil law, and therefore deals with both private and public matters. There are two distinct areas of business law:

1. The regulation of commercial bodies through partnership, bankruptcy, company, and agency laws.

2. The regulation of commercial transactions through contract laws.

Much of a Business Lawyer’s work involves trying to foresee and prevent future problems that are detrimental to a business entity or may cause legal disputes. Business attorneys help educate company owners about the necessary, and sometimes confusing processes involved in legally establishing and protecting a business.


Business Law often encompasses the following areas:

  • Business Formation
  • Employment Considerations
  • Immigration Law
  • Sales of Consumer Goods
  • Contract Drafting
  • Intellectual Property
  • Business Taxes
  • Bankruptcy
