How to create unique slug in laravel and validate them ?

Here is my validation code:

$this->validate($request,[
        'company_name' => 'required|unique:admin_users,company_name,slug|max:191',
    ]);

Here is my slug code:

I'm trying this way and now it's work,

Here is code form:

 <div class="form-group">
    <input type="text" class="form-control" placeholder="Company Name" name="company_name" value="{{ ucwords(str_replace('-',' ',old('company_name'))) }}" required>
 </div>

Here is controller code:

public function store(Request $request)
{
    $request['company_name'] = str_slug($request->company_name, '-');

    $this->validate($request,[
        'company_name' => "required|unique:admin_users,company_name|max:191",
    ]);
    $db_filed = new AdminUser;
    $db_filed->company_name = $request->company_name; 

    $db_filed->save();
}
