Our corporate lawyers help protect your business with the right corporate structure
Choosing the appropriate legal structure for your business is pivotal for several reasons. Far too often, businesses delay incorporation, exposing their owners and assets to unnecessary risks.
Operating as a sole trader or partnership intertwines your personal and business liabilities. Any legal disputes or financial issues faced by your business can jeopardise your personal assets. To safeguard your personal wealth, incorporate into a proprietary limited company (Pty Ltd) and don’t wait for supposed tax benefits to kick in at revenue milestones.
Our corporate lawyers assess your business needs, goals, and regulatory requirements to recommend the optimal legal structure. We consider factors like liability protection, tax implications, and operational flexibility to ensure the right choice.

Corporate Law FAQs
What is corporate structure?
Corporate structure encompasses the management, ownership, and legal responsibilities of a business entity.
Every business owner faces the critical decision of selecting the appropriate structure, which significantly influences day-to-day operations.
In the case of a business operating as a company, it adopts the incorporated Pty Ltd structure. This designation establishes the business as a distinct legal entity, distinct from the sole trader structure where the owner and operator are typically the same, often registered under an individual’s name.
Under the Pty Ltd structure, the company enjoys the same legal rights as an individual, enabling it to incur debts, initiate legal actions, and be subject to legal proceedings.
What are the types of business structures in Australia?
Australia offers four commonly used business structure types:
- Sole trader
- Partnership
- Company
- Trust
These structures vary significantly, impacting tax obligations, asset protection, and associated costs. Understanding your responsibilities within each is crucial.
If you’re uncertain about the most suitable structure for your situation, seeking advice from a corporate lawyer is advisable. Legal professionals can provide guidance on selecting the optimal legal structure to align with your business objectives.

What legal services do corporate lawyers offer?
Our corporate lawyers provide a range of services including contract drafting and negotiation, mergers and acquisitions, intellectual property protection (including trade marks), compliance with corporate regulations, dispute resolution, and advice on choosing the right legal structure for businesses.
What benefits does incorporating my business as a Pty Ltd company offer?
Incorporating as a Pty Ltd company establishes a separate legal entity, shielding your personal assets from business liabilities.
It grants the business similar legal rights as an individual, enabling it to enter contracts, sue, and be sued, offering enhanced legal protection and credibility.
