Business Law

Business law, or commercial law, is the group of laws, rules and practices that govern a business's dealings with other businesses, government agencies and individuals. Good legal advice protects your rights and your company's future by preventing the mistakes that lead to disputes later.

What to know

Choosing a structure

A sole proprietorship is simple, but you are personally liable for its debts. A corporation is a separate legal person with its own records, tax filings and possible tax advantages. A partnership needs a clear agreement from day one.

Keep your corporation in good standing

Ontario corporations must keep a minute book and registers, and file an annual return. Missing filings can lead to the corporation being dissolved.

Put it in writing

A shareholder or partnership agreement decides in advance what happens when owners disagree, one wants to leave, or someone passes away.
