Resolving Your Dispute
One of the first steps in resolving these types of disputes is to determine the rights, duties and obligations of each party involved. We must determine if there is buy/sell agreement for shareholders. If there is not, we can help the parties decide on how to proceed. Other issues may arise if the dispute is between a majority versus minority shareholder.
Disputes within limited liability companies, limited liability partnerships, limited partnerships and general partnerships often involve a governing document such as an operating agreement or a partnership agreement. Sometimes there is no written agreement, so we must determine the terms of the oral agreement — this is understandably tricky as people often have very different interpretations of oral agreements. We have the experience to help you work through this problem.
Owner disputes sometimes involve an owner leaving the business — or being asked to leave. Our attorneys understand the need to solve this problem and get everyone back to work in a timely manner.
If Litigation Is Necessary
We can represent the business entity or the individual in these disputes. While we make every effort to resolve disputes without going to court, we will litigate aggressively for you if necessary.
