10.01.2022 Setting up a business can be overwhelming and it's often difficult to determine where money should be spent in the early stages. Often overlooked is the Shareholders' Agreement. While not a legal requirement, any business with more than one shareholder should highly consider having one. Here are a couple of benefits of the agreement: 1. It's the easier (and notably more cost effective) way to minimise potential disputes between owners by setting out a framework for decision making and dispute resolution. 2. It prevents changes in shareholder's personal circumstances having the ability to make an impact on the business or other shareholders situations, ultimately safeguarding the company and each shareholder.

10.01.2022 The recent Retail and Commercial Rental Relief extension has provided much needed financial support to many struggling Australian businesses. If your business has been impacted this year and you are wondering who exactly this regulation applies to during the extension period, contact our team at JHK Legal who are experts in helping businesses just like yours navigate through these tough times.

09.01.2022 The current predictions state that insolvency appointments will be significantly higher when government spending runs out - even more so than those we saw post the GFC. If this is what's to be expected, businesses should be seeking advice now, before the warning signs start to appear. If you need advice on the best route for your business moving forward, get in contact with us at JHK Legal.

09.01.2022 New changes to the Residential Tenancies Act 2010 (NSW) and the Retail Leases Act 1994 (NSW) will provide relief for tenants and lessees in NSW in response to COVID-19. Unfortunately we are yet to receive guidance on commercial leases at this stage and commercial tenants/landlords should consider their rights, obligations and liabilities under existing leases and assess whether insurance may provide protections in the current crisis. The team at JHK Legal will bring you further updates when available.
