Most definitely the so-called “civil law” or, depending on your location, the “common law”.

The “law” is a set of rules designed to regulate relations (a) between humans and (b) between humans and objects (OK, that makes it a subset of “relations between humans”. Animals, for example, will conveniently ignore property issues, etc.). What exactly those rules are, and how they operate, varies.

Typically, when people think of the “law”, they think of circumstances when the “law” becomes visible, i.e. in exceptional circumstances that are potentially life-changing, i.e. criminal law, or when the state makes its presence known, by demanding you pay taxes, etc.

However, daily life is usually regulated by a much larger degree by the so-called “Zivilrecht”, for lack of a better word, a “law of interpersonal relationships”.

You get up in the morning, out of bed? Chances are, you bought that bed someplace, so the law of contracts, which governs sales, had something to do with it. The bed is standing in a flat or house, which is either rented → law on lease agreements, or owned → property law. You take a shower → you have a service agreement with your utilities provider, who ensures that there is water in the pipe leading to your domicile.

You get dressed → law of contracts concerning how you bought the clothes you wear, → property law concerning you’re allowed to do with the clothes as you please.

You leave the house and walk down the street → traffic laws are designed to make that a safe and convenient experience, and enter a coffee shop. There, you buy a cup of coffee, a bagel, and a newspaper for your breakfast → depending on where in the world you are, you just entered into, and executed, anything between one and nine contracts governing the passage of ownership of coffee, bagel and newspaper to you, reciprocal obligations (“stuff” for “money”) concerning the quality and payment terms of the items you purchased, and them now “belonging” to you, and not to the coffee shop, any more.

If the coffee shop is part of a chain, chances are you will not be contracting with the guy behind the counter, but with a company (i.e, Starbucks?), so laws on representation and agency also apply. In 90% of the cases, if your coffee is cold, you will complain to whoever sold you your coffee. What is too cold ? → Implied terms, coffee should be suitable for human consumption and of a “typically to be expected” quality and temperature, otherwise defective… .

And if you paid by credit card, another, different, level of contracts with banks, credit agencies and service providers kicks in. Let’s assume you paid cash, to keep it simple :-).

All of this happens more or less “in plain sight”, but out of mind. It is supposed to happen that way. The law is there, more or less invisible to non-lawyers, but it only becomes visible when things go wrong. Our everyday lives are typically enmeshed by legal rules, most of them concerning “commercial” transactions in the widest sense. That is the area of law that most of us will find prevalent in our everyday lives. Everything else, Taxes, criminal law, etc., is not nearly as prevalent.

Side note: A lot of areas are also explicitly NOT regulated by the law. “Social interations”, for example: If you invite someone for dinner, and then let them stand outside in the rain,you will typically not suffer legal consequences (i.e. you will not have breeched a “contract”), but you will suffer purely social consequences (chances are, whoever you invited will not want to see you again).

Hope this helps
