Partnership Disputes
Should you find yourself in the unenviable situation of having a dispute with your business partner, our team have the experience to help you. We will work with you to achieve your desired outcome and can help guide you through what can be a tricky process.
Our team of experts understand the intricacies of partnership law, and the relevant legal frameworks. They can provide valuable insights into the relevant law, whether under the Partnership Act (in circumstances where there is no partnership agreement) or under the terms of any formal agreements between the parties.
In the first instance, we will assess the merits of your case objectively and provide guidance on the best course of action.
In many partnership disputes, negotiation plays a crucial role in reaching a resolution. Our lawyers are skilled negotiators who can represent your interests effectively during settlement discussions or mediation sessions. If those discussions result in settlement, we can assist you with any documents required to carry the terms into effect, whether that be new partnership agreements or settlement agreements. We appreciate the complexities that can arise in this respect, and can help you in managing that position.
Should it prove to be necessary, we can represent you in court proceedings to resolve any remaining issues. Partner disputes can involve complex legal issues related to ownership rights, fiduciary duties, and contractual obligations. Whilst each situation is unique, we can help protect your rights and ensure that your interests are safeguarded throughout the process.
Partnership disputes can have significant financial and reputational consequences. By seeking legal advice early on, you can minimise the risks associated with the dispute and explore options for resolving the conflict in the most cost-effective manner.
