Legal Considerations in Business Financing – Starting a Business

No matter what type of business you plan on starting, there are many rules and regulations to be wary of. Every sector of business has their own laws surrounding what can/can not be done, what type of research and safety regulations need to be followed, and certain standards that you must follow even before operations commence. In addition, there are different sets of regulations in place depending on federal, provincial and municipal standards, which can often leave business owners in uncompliant spots for laws they were completely unaware of. Failing to comply with business standards can lead to losing the business.

A corporate lawyer can assist in terms of helping you follow the laws that pose potential risks and help in drafting contracts that are fundamental to the ways in which your business functions. Investing in a solid foundation for your company can save you plenty of money in the future, from possible lawsuits to audits. There are, however, a few questions to consider before going to a corporate lawyer:

  1. What structure will your business have? A corporate lawyer can help you decide which type best suits your needs. Businesses will need to draft agreements in order to ensure fairness for all involved.
  2. A small business is often run out of a home office, before expanding. It is important to match the stage of your business with the location. Taking the time to critically think about moving can save you future headaches. Corporate lawyers can advise you of concerning areas and help you dispute potentially risky clauses.
  3. A corporate lawyer can listen to exactly what you need, draft the documents from start to finish. This ensures your focus remains on the purpose of the business, rather than tedious regulations. It also ensures the process is done swiftly and correctly, as local lawyers are likely familiar with the local laws.
