LLC and Partnership Disputes
Business partnership disputes can range from a mere disagreement that can be resolved amongst the partners to an existential crisis where the best course is to dissolve the partnership with as little business and personal disruption as possible. Whether it is a disagreement over financial matters, differing visions and goals, breach of contractual obligations, or allegations of misconduct, these disputes have the potential to cause significant disruption and financial loss. Our commercial attorneys stand ready to guide individual partners and partnerships through these types of disputes to find the best possible business solutions for our clients.
Our Approach
We believe that business partnership disputes require a specialized approach that considers both legal aspects and the interpersonal and business dynamics of the partnership. Our team of skilled business dispute attorneys know partnership law and regulations and deploy that knowledge keeping in mind the underlying business and relationship dynamics unique to the partnership and the partners involved.
When representing clients in partnership disputes, our approach entails:
1. Comprehensive Analysis
We conduct a thorough analysis of the partnership agreement, financial documents, and any relevant correspondence or communication to gain a comprehensive understanding of the situation. In addition to reviewing all the important available documents, our partnership dispute attorneys listen to our clients to understand what they want, what went wrong, and what we can do to fix it.
2. Mediation and Negotiation
When it comes to partnership disputes—essentially an economic dispute with someone the client knows and has successfully done business with in the past—we believe, in the right circumstances, exploring alternative dispute resolution methods before resorting to litigation can be beneficial. Our attorneys have substantial experience mediating and negotiating these types of matters, striving to achieve amicable resolutions that protect our clients’ interests, whether that means preserving the partnership or dissolving it amicably.
3. Litigation
In cases where mediation or negotiation is not feasible or fails to achieve a satisfactory resolution, we are fully prepared to zealously advocate for our clients in court. Our business partnership dispute attorneys have successfully litigated cases in state and federal court, all the way through trial and appeal.
