Frequently Asked Questions

What does a corporate lawyer do?

A corporate lawyer advises on the legal aspects of running a company including corporate governance, directors duties, shareholder rights, capital raises, restructuring, and compliance with the Corporations Act 2001.

What are the key duties of a company director in Australia?

Under the Corporations Act 2001, directors must act with care and diligence, in good faith, in the best interests of the company, avoid conflicts of interest, and not allow the company to trade while insolvent. Breach can result in personal liability and civil or criminal penalties.

When does a company need a shareholders agreement?

Any company with more than one shareholder should have one. A shareholders agreement governs decision-making, share transfers, exit mechanisms, and dispute resolution. Without one, you rely on Corporations Act defaults that may not reflect your intentions.

What is a corporate restructure?

A corporate restructure reorganises a company for tax efficiency, asset protection, preparing for sale or investment, or simplifying a group structure. Legal and tax advice is essential to manage the compliance implications of any restructure.

How do I raise capital for my company?

Capital raises must comply with the Corporations Act disclosure requirements. Options include issuing shares to existing shareholders, placements to sophisticated investors, employee share schemes, or an IPO. HG Law advises on structuring capital raises for companies at every stage of growth.
