Director, Shareholder, Partnerships and LLPs

When going into business with others, you do not envisage that the parties will fall out. Unfortunately, this is a common occurrence and can have a detrimental impact on the business. It is prudent to seek professional legal advice promptly to ensure that any dispute is dealt with correctly and resolved swiftly; to minimise the impact the dispute may have on the business.

We act for shareholders, directors, partnerships and LLPs in relation to a range of disputes, which includes (but not limited to) the following areas:

• Unfair prejudice petitions;
• Winding up petitions on just and equitable grounds;
• Deadlocks;
• Derivative claims;
• Breach of partnership agreements;
• Breach of fiduciary duties;
• Breach of shareholders agreements;
• Breach of director service agreements;
• Dissolution of partnerships; and
• Payment of unlawful dividend.
