Partnership Disputes & Commercial Litigation


Resolving Conflicts

Your business – like many others – may depend on the cooperation of partners to thrive. It is likely you went into business with your partner with no expectation that a rift could ever arise. Unfortunately, the reality is that many business partners will end up going through serious conflicts, which can impact their ability to continue working together. While some conflict can be resolved, other conflicts offer little choice but a dissolution of your partnership agreement.

When partnership disputes arise, your business can experience setbacks, many of them financial. Perhaps your business is currently experiencing a dispute between partners. If so, that dispute can have an effect not only on your business, but in your personal life, having a direct impact on your financial security. You may have recently discovered that your business is in disarray and that money is unexpectedly flowing out due to a partner’s unethical behaviors. Or perhaps you and your partner simply have a different vision on the direction you want your business to take.

Types of Partnership Disputes

Whatever your partnership dispute, you need strong legal counsel by your side to ensure your share of the company and your business interests are being properly protected. You may have worked many years to build up your business, and the last thing you want or need is to have your success compromised by your partner’s financial misdeeds. You may be experiencing one or more of the following issues with your business partner:

  • Violations of your partnership agreement

  • Disputes related to the terms of your partnership agreement

  • Disagreements regarding how you believe the business should be run

  • Disputes regarding the division of business profits

  • Unethical practices engaged in by your partner

  • Failure of your partner to fulfill his or her business duties
