A business is an entity — a company, partnership, corporation, or other type of formal organization — that exists to make a profit. Business law is the area of law that deals with the legal needs of those entities.
People need a business lawyer when forming one or more of the following business entities: sole proprietorship, partnership, corporation, limited liability company, or non-profit. Business law attorneys help clients by creating or reviewing business contracts or agreements, and in the buying and selling of businesses and property associated with them.
