While corporate and commercial law have a lot in common, they specialise in certain aspects related to a business venture. Whether you are looking for a specialist business lawyer Melbourne entrepreneurs rely on, or a commercial lawyer Melbourne companies trust for consumer law-related matters, the first step is to understand what each lawyer offers.
In this blog, Melbourne Law Studio outlines the key responsibilities of both fields and the areas in which they specialise.
Corporate law largely concerns itself with the rights, conduct and relations of a business. It deals with the structure companies use to function, how they govern themselves and how they plan their growth.

Absolutely fantastic service. Highly recommend. The team at Melbourne Law Studio was very helpful and professional keeping me updated at all stages of the process providing the best of guidance and clarity in my personal matters. Demi was outstanding in the services provided from start to finish, very helpful and insightful with prompt responses to all my queries, making the whole process far less stressful. Thank you Ines, Demi and the team for helping me move on with my life. I would highly recommend Demi and the MLS team as a whole.
Melbourne Law Studio was a beacon of hope during a very challenging time in my life. The staff was empathetic, knowledgeable, and professional. They guided me through every step of my family law matter, providing clear explanations and support. I felt reassured knowing I had a strong team advocating for my rights. I am grateful for their hard work and commitment to achieving a fair outcome.
Going through a separation was one of the toughest experiences, but Melbourne Law Studio made it feel manageable. Even though it could get emotionally overwhelming, I could see a light at the end of the tunnel. Ines was patient, listened to all my concerns, and treated me with respect and kindness. She has a really easy demeanour about her and I felt like her and the team had my back every step of the way. I can’t thank MSL enough for their support.
After my separation, a friend suggested I reach out to Ines at MLS. From the start, she was not only professional but also genuinely supportive and open about the process, costs, and the likely outcomes. Her approach was in line with my goal of reaching a fair and amicable resolution. I’m really grateful for her kindness and attention to detail. Thank you
From the first call I felt like I was in the right hands with Melbourne Law Studio. They were friendly and made me feel heard. Ines and her team went above and beyond to make sure I understood all my options and helped develop a strategy to get the best result in what was a really messy parenting dispute. Their personal approach and genuine care made me feel like I was always welcome to call them and see what was happening or what was next, the waiting sometimes for the other side was hard so I’m truly grateful for that.
