Business Owner Disputes

Business owners are no strangers to discord and disagreement.  At times, conflict may be avoided through mediation, arbitration or amendment of the entity’s business agreements.  When this is not possible, our business litigation attorneys possess the practical and broad-based experience to help our clients resolve their disputes, and when necessary, protect their rights in court.

In the buy-out context, our business litigators are skilled at working with forensic valuation experts and accountants to consider the appropriate valuation method, discounts and premiums.

We understand that no two businesses are alike, and that owner disputes require innovative solutions and extensive knowledge of our clients’ business history and future goals.  We also are acutely aware of the challenges facing closely held business owners, including claims of minority oppression and deadlock.  With a firm focus on our clients’ objectives, we tailor our services accordingly to achieve the most favorable outcome.
