We advise business owners, directors and partners when internal relationships break down. Whether you’re being pushed out, frozen out or simply can’t agree on the future, we help you understand your rights and make a plan.
That could mean negotiating a clean exit, enforcing an agreement or resolving a deadlock. We deal with informal partnerships, LLPs and traditional set-ups, and regularly act in cases involving broken trust, misuse of funds, profit disputes and breaches of duty.
We’ll help you take the heat out of the situation, get clear on where you stand and move towards a commercial outcome that protects what matters.
How we work:
These cases need more than just legal knowledge. They need good judgment, a cool head and commercial focus:
- We start by understanding the structure, relationships and what’s at risk
- You’ll work directly with a senior lawyer who knows how these disputes play out
- We keep you informed and in control of costs and strategy throughout
- We focus on early resolution where possible, but prepare properly for court if needed
- We’re clear, direct and always acting in your business’s best interest
Areas we cover:
- Disputes between business partners or LLP members
- Breakdown in trust, responsibilities or decision-making
- Exit and retirement disputes
- Profit share or valuation disagreements
- Breach of duty or misconduct by a partner
- Deadlock situations and internal stalemates
- Allegations of unfair treatment, exclusion or bad faith
- Misuse of business assets, IP or funds
- Enforcement of partnership or LLP agreements
- Negotiation, mediation and litigation support
Need more than partnership advice?
Partnership disputes often run alongside other legal issues. We can step in quickly where needed.
This can include:
What do we cost?
We take a flexible approach to our costs; and the fee structure of each instruction is case-specific.
We are more than happy to discuss our costs options on an informal basis.
