Frequently Asked Questions
What is a joint venture?
A joint venture takes place when two or more parties work together on a project or business, sharing profits and losses. It’s a great way to diversify their business, but it needs careful legal planning.
Why do I need a business and commercial lawyer for a joint venture?
A business and commercial lawyer ensures your rights and responsibilities are protected in the joint venture agreement. We help structure the venture, draft agreements, and resolve any disputes that may arise.
What types of joint ventures are there?
The main types are contractual joint ventures, incorporated joint ventures, and unit trust joint ventures. We can help you choose the best structure for your needs.
What should a joint venture agreement include?
It should cover the venture’s nature, each party’s rights and obligations, financial arrangements, intellectual property rights, decision-making processes, and exit strategies. We make sure your agreement covers all these crucial points.
How do you handle joint venture disputes?
We include strong dispute resolution clauses in your agreement. If conflicts arise, we can help with negotiation, mediation, or arbitration to resolve issues efficiently.
How long does it take to set up a joint venture?
The timeline varies depending on the complexity of the venture and how quickly all parties can agree. We work efficiently to set up your joint venture as quickly as possible while ensuring everything is done properly.
Can you help with international joint ventures?
Yes, we can assist with joint ventures involving international partners. We’ll ensure your agreement complies with both Australian and relevant international laws.

We include clear exit strategies in your joint venture agreement. If you need to leave the venture, we’ll guide you through the process to protect your interests.

It depends on the type of joint venture. An incorporated joint venture forms a separate company, while a contractual joint venture typically doesn’t. We can advise on the best structure for your situation.
