Commercial Law

Procedures concerning commercial enterprises, companies, contracts and commercial disputes.

ABOUT THIS FIELD

Commercial law regulates the activities of commercial enterprises, the rights and obligations of merchants, the formation and operation of companies, negotiable instruments and disputes arising from commercial transactions. Commercial custom, the prudent-merchant standard and specific rules of evidence are particularly significant in this field.

Company records, general assembly and management decisions, commercial books, contracts and correspondence establish the framework of the dispute. For commercial receivables and compensation claims subject to mandatory pre-action mediation, the parties must apply to a mediator before bringing proceedings.
