Company & Partnership Disputes
Over time disagreements often occur in business, whether the business itself is run as a partnership or as a limited company / public limited company. Directors in companies are subject to stringent duties and it is common for Directors to become in dispute with the other Directors. In addition to disputes between the Directors; disputes between Shareholders or, ever more frequently, disputes between Shareholders and Directors, can occur.

Partnership disputes
Usually if two or more people engage in business, they either operate as a partnership, limited company, public limited company or LLP. Partnerships can occur in various situations which range from the formation of a partnership governed by a written partnership agreement to an oral partnership agreement, for which the terms of said agreement are vague or, commonly, the subject of a dispute.
Disputes between partners quickly cause damage to the business and it is therefore vital that all partnership disputes are resolved quickly. Our Team of Specialists will work quickly, effectively and pragmatically. In each and every case we will take time to understand the partnership, your business needs (as one of the Partners), your aims and objectives and the impact of the litigation on the partnership itself.
