Our team represents business owners in a range of partnership dispute situations, including:

Partnership disputes often arise when one partner fails to uphold their obligations under a written or verbal agreement, leading to breakdowns in trust and business operations. These conflicts can involve profit sharing, decision-making authority, or the misuse of business assets. Our partnership dispute lawyers help business owners resolve partnership disputes efficiently and enforce their rights under the terms of the agreement.

Shareholder disputes can arise over control, profit distribution, dilution, or access to company information—especially in closely held corporations. These conflicts can disrupt governance, delay decisions, and threaten long-term value. Our securities lawyers represent majority and minority shareholders in enforcing their rights and resolving disputes through negotiation, litigation, or corporate restructuring.

A breach of a partnership agreement occurs when one partner fails to uphold the terms of the deal, whether related to duties, capital contributions, or management roles. These violations can threaten the health and future of the business. Our partnership dispute lawyers work to enforce the terms of the agreement and resolve conflicts through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.

A breach of an operating agreement can lead to serious conflicts between members of an LLC, often involving disputes over voting rights, profit distributions, or management decisions. These issues can disrupt day-to-day operations and damage long-term business relationships. Our partnership dispute lawyers help clients enforce operating agreements and resolve internal conflicts while protecting their ownership and control.

A breach of fiduciary duty occurs when a partner acts in their own interest at the expense of the business or other partners, violating the trust that underpins the relationship. This can include self-dealing, misusing company funds, or withholding critical information. Our partnership dispute lawyers represent clients in holding partners accountable and pursuing remedies that protect the integrity of the business.

Financial fraud between partners—such as hidden income, theft, misappropriated funds, or falsified records—can cause lasting damage to both trust and the business itself. These situations often require a thorough investigation and swift legal action. Our partnership dispute lawyers help clients uncover financial misconduct and pursue claims to recover losses and restore accountability.

Business dissolution between partners can stem from unresolved disputes, shifting goals, or breaches of agreement, and often involves complex questions around asset division, liabilities, and control. A poorly managed dissolution can expose partners to long-term legal and financial risk. Our partnership dispute lawyers guide clients through the dissolution process with a focus on protecting their interests and ensuring a clean, compliant exit.
