No matter what form you decide on for your business, an LLC, a partnership, or a corporation, if you're anything other than a sole proprietor, the success of your business depends at least in part on your relationship with a co-owner.

 

A great working relationship with your partner or other shareholders can produce synergy and success in your business.

 

Strife in upper management can be debilitating for your company. Partnership disputes need to be approached aggressively, swiftly and intelligently.

 

Our shareholder dispute attorneys have experience handling all types of shareholder and partnership law issues:

 

• Operating agreement or shareholder agreement disputes

• Disbursement and salary related issues

• Employment related issues

• Fraudulent business practices

• Access to records disagreements

• Business succession disputes

• Breach of fiduciary duties

• Individual shareholder liability issues

• Violation of non-competition agreements

• Usurping corporate opportunities or misappropriating trade secrets

• Defamation

​​

Many shareholder disputes can be addressed quickly through a mediation process, formal or informal. Many successful partnership disputes we've handled for our business law clients have ended with reconciliation or consensual buyouts.

 

We invite you to contact our attorneys to discuss your legal needs. Whether you are seeking assistance with a business start-up or hoping to improve an existing company's profits, our lawyers can help.
