The Difference Between Commercial & Business Law

While both fields of law are important for Lockport businesses, they serve different purposes.

The fundamental difference between commercial and business law is that commercial law deals with the rules governing the operations of businesses (purchasing, sales, & distribution), while business law encompasses a broader scope of legal issues that deal with actually running the business (legalities, acquisitions, shareholders, etc.).

Unlike commercial law, which is focused on the regulations surrounding the sale of goods and services, business law covers a wide range of legal topics, including employment law, contract law, and bankruptcy. As a result, business law is a more comprehensive field of study than commercial law, though both areas of the law often tend to cover the same issues.

Once again, in summary, Commercial legal work helps businesses to stay compliant with the rules and regulations governing their operations, while business law provides a deeper understanding of the legal issues that a business owner may face.

When Should You Hire A Business Lawyer?

Situations in which one may consider hiring a business or commercial lawyer can vary depending on the business and its needs. For example, if a business is expanding or merging with another company, it may need legal assistance to draft new contracts or revise existing ones. 

If you are already operating a business, you may need legal help with contract drafting or negotiation, mergers, and acquisitions, employment law compliance, intellectual property protection, or real estate transactions. 

Any business involved in a lawsuit or legal dispute may need a lawyer to represent it in court as well. Alternatively, a business may simply need a lawyer to advise it on legal matters related to its operations.
