Ensure Your Rights as a Business Owner


Are you facing problems with the Directors of a company? Are you feeling that as a shareholder you are given an unfair treatment? Or, are your shareholders treating you with an unfair prejudice? Let it be anything, Robert Doran, Litigation Counsel offers an expert litigation service in case of partnership disputes or shareholder disputes.


Shareholder and Partnership disputes


Most of the disputes that happen between the co-owners of a company are due to the lack of trust between them. These disputes depend upon the nature of the business and the role of each shareholder involved. 


There are many reasons for the disputes between Business Owners, Directors and Business partners ranging from disagreements over who is the centre of power to strained personal relation between them. Disputes are 

common when the company assets and funds are misappropriated or someone feels that the valuation of shares has been manipulated. Conflict of interest as well as the inability of the partners to cooperate also causes these disputes.



How to Resolve These Disputes?


Not all of these disputes end up in the court. Some of these can be sorted out quickly and constructively by employing the right kind of approach. Negotiations, mediations or alternative dispute resolution can be some of those tactical methods. But, legal representation may be required when such steps to resolve such disputes fail. 


It is possible to obtain various court orders and remedies by starting a business ownership lawsuit. Some remedies for shareholder and partnership conflicts are given below:


  • Monetary Damages
  • Buy out (or sale) of business ownership among co-owners
  • Control of the business
  • Sale of assets
  • Appointment of a receiver
  • Entity dissolution
  • Tracing of assets
  • Order for the direction or management of the business


Whom to Consult?


If you are a person who is caught in a business dispute with the shareholders of your company or with partners, and you can’t settle these disagreements through simple negotiations, you should not delay in seeking a legal counsel from a company dispute lawyer. Certain transactions and steps your business co-owner take may become irreversible if you wait for longer.
