When the business honeymoon is over and the owners, officers, or directors no longer see eye-to-eye, the resulting dispute can be as emotionally charged as a divorce. These disputes can bring business to a halt and sometimes may put an end to the business as a going concern.

​

Each dispute is different, bringing a unique set of facts and circumstances. What sets these disputes apart from other litigation is how personal the matters become, much of which is the result of the dynamic personalities of the individuals involved in the dispute. We have litigated and resolved—efficiently and pragmatically—many disagreements between and among business partners and shareholders.
