What types of business structures exist in Australian companies, and how do I determine which one is right for my company?

Several key types of business structures exist in Australia, including:

• Company
• Partnership
• Proprietorship/Sole Trader
• Trust

There are many factors that can determine which type of business structure is best for you. Your decision should be based on the commercial activity you aim to undertake. In these cases, one particular type of business structure might have more strengths than another. Get in touch with our commercial lawyers to help you find the right structure that’s aligned with your business goals.

What is meant by ‘breach of contract’?

A breach of contract is one party’s failure to effectively fulfil contractual obligations that were previously agreed to by both parties. This breach occurs when a binding agreement between two or more parties is not honoured by one or more parties to the contract by non-performance or interference with the other party’s performance of the agreement.

Are you able to assist me with my employment contracts?

At Dettmann Phair Lawyers, our commercial litigators are well-versed when it comes to the legal rights regarding commercial contracts, especially between employees and their employers. From drafting and reviewing to negotiating contracts, our team are more than happy to assist you.

Can you assist me with debt collection?

While debt collectors and lawyers are two very different professions, we can assist you with a debt claim or go through the court system based on the cost of the debt. We can arrange to argue in your place or undergo mediation if you do not want to attend court proceedings. We can even support you by accumulating pending debts from a borrower currently experiencing bankruptcy.

Is there a difference between arbitration & mediation?

While both operate under similar conditions and are commonly known as alternatives to straight litigation – there are some minor differences in the practices. Both approaches involve an objective third party to monitor and facilitate the process. While both have the option to be legally binding, arbitration agreements are always legally binding and operate as an alternative to the trial process.

On the other hand, mediation is more commonly utilised as a non-binding exercise and encourages disputing parties to have an open conversation with each other. Alternative dispute resolution (ADR) is taken place to ensure both parties reach an agreement without having to go through the court system. Arbitrators also take on the role of a judge in many respects, providing orders and reasons for those orders based on evidence and giving written opinions on business law.

Can I file for an appeal after the case has been finalised?

If you believe the final ruling of your commercial litigation case is unfair or inaccurate – you may have the chance to appeal to a higher court. However, be wary, as a higher court can reject your application for appeal and apply a harsher penalty if they feel it necessary.
