Address Internal Division Head-On
Some of the most common issues that lead to internal business disputes include:
- Abandonment of responsibilities
- Intellectual property rights violations
- Breach of partnership or shareholder agreement
- Conflicts between majority and minority shareholders
- Unfair compensation
- Fraud and misappropriation of corporate funds
- Differences in vision for the company’s direction
In addition, the existence of fiduciary duty can add another layer to a business dispute. Fiduciaries have a legal responsibility to act in a manner that prioritizes the interests of their beneficiaries in good faith. Executives and shareholders alike could encounter a breach of fiduciary duty claim.
Our attorneys help clients examine the details of their case, including whether a fiduciary duty exists. We can formulate a strategy around your objectives, which may include litigation. Our team has the experience to pursue the best possible option effectively.
