Commercial law is the body of law that governs businesses and individuals rights, conduct, and obligations in their business activities and transactions with other enterprises and the general public. When two or more businesses reach agreement on commercial terms, they can engage lawyers draft up commercial agreements based on the terms. In case of dispute, parties can seek to resolve the matter by negotiating through their lawyers or take the matter to court. In case of a court dispute, the Court will hear the parties’ evidence and legal arguments and render a binding judgement.
