As a business owner, regardless of whether you are just starting out or have been operational for many years, you have to familiarize yourself with the South African business laws. One way to familiarise yourself with these laws is to hire an expert that specialises in corporate and commercial law.
Commercial and corporate lawyers are experts in business and company law. They assist companies in numerous business transactions and offer legal advice when required.
Every business function is important, however there are two professionals that every business needs to hire from the onset and that is a lawyer and an accountant. A lawyer, commonly the last thought on your mind when starting a business, is actually the most important.
Benefits of hiring a corporate and business lawyer:
- Lawyers can assist you in basic zoning compliance issues
- Advice you on the type of business you form
- Protect your intellectual property i.e. copyright and trademark
- Guide you through the employment process
- Assist with court representation
How to choose a business lawyer or business law firm
Choosing the right business lawyer can feel daunting. When looking for a business lawyer or business law firm, consider the following:
- Your company's needs. Look at the skills set that your company needs and whether the business law firm has the skills you will need.
- Industry knowledge. You need a lawyer who knows your industry well and will be able to give you legal advice that is suitable for your business.
- Online reviews and referrals. Anyone can market themselves as the best, but when looking for a corporate lawyer, go through online reviews and ask fellow business associates which lawyer they use.
