You can use required_if_accepted validation rule which ensures the field under validation is required if another field is accepted (a value of yes, on, 1, or true).
Validator::make([ 'is_company' => 'on', 'company_name' => 'Apple',], [ 'is_company' => 'required|boolean', 'company_name' => 'required_if_accepted:is_company',]);
