Shareholder Disputes Attorney - Protecting your business investment
Often, at the start of a new business venture, the partners get along very well. They firmly believe in "all for one, and one for all." This is the best time to create a buy-sell shareholder agreement, also known as the "business divorce pre-nuptial." I understand that getting out of the business is probably the last thing any partner wants to do. However, this may not always be true. It is much easier to create a workable contract now than when the partnership is frayed and no one speaks to each other.

If you are already in a shareholder dispute
If you are already in the process of a business divorce, here are some questions to consider.
- Do you know the fair market value of your business?
- Do you suspect that any of your shareholders have, through acts such as money siphoning or related party transactions, damaged the value of the business? If so, do you have any written evidence that points to that fact?
- If the company has been damaged, what is its fair value?
Answering these questions will help me give you an accurate assessment of your case.
