Business Sales Agreements

Vibe Legal regularly assists business owners to choose or rethink their legal structures and define or redefine their stakeholder relationships. We have the experience and knowledge to prepare business legal documents such as company constitutions, shareholders agreements, discretionary trust deeds, unit trust deeds, hybrid trusts deeds, unitholders agreements, joint venture agreements, partnership agreements, venture capital investment fund deeds, SMSF trust deeds, and SMSF borrowing bare trust deeds.

Business Start Ups

Welcome to the exciting world of entrepreneurship! Before you get started, it’s important to establish who will be setting up your business. Will it be you as an individual? If so, you may consider operating as a ‘sole trader’, ‘company’, or ‘trust’. If there is more than one owner, you might consider a ‘partnership’, ‘company’, or ‘trust’.

Once you have determined the type of entity that will be running your business, you will need to come up with a name to trade under. The process of registering your business name will vary depending on the type of entity you trade through.

Franchise Agreements

Franchise agreements are often complicated and usually afford the franchisors the right to retain control over the name, brand and business systems that are to be used by the franchisee. Understanding both franchisor and franchisee’s obligations and risks prior to entering into a legally binding agreement is a commercially sensible step to take when considering pursuing a franchise model. When reviewing such agreements, Vibe Legal’s commercial lawyers will endeavour to provide advice that is in line with current commercial standards and is commercially practical. We also offer advice to clients in respect of existing franchise agreements and the rights, obligations, and responsibilities of each party to the contract.

Contracts Disputes and Debt Recovery

We offer dispute resolution services and business litigation covering a wide range of problems including breach of contract, building and property disputes, debt recovery, partnership disputes and corporations’ law. Whilst our key objective at Vibe Legal is to keep our clients out of court, litigation is sometimes appropriate.

Commercial / Retail Leases

Whether you are a landlord or a tenant, you should always seek legal advice in the negotiating and preparation of commercial leases, sub-leases, lease amendments, and assignment of lease. Additionally, if the commercial lease falls under the Commercial Tenancy (Retail Shops) Agreements Act 1985, there are specific obligations to be undertaken by the landlord and the tenant prior to entering the lease. To avoid the pitfalls that come with a poorly drafted commercial lease and falling foul of the Commercial Tenancy (Retail Shops) Agreements Act 1985, always ensure you obtain professional legal advice.
