When a business partnership unravels, RPNA attorneys are called to resolve the situation. Most individuals enter into a business with good intentions.
As time goes on, a partnership can fray. One owner wants the business to expand while another desires it to remain as it is. In today’s world of conflict between owners and investors, management and shareholders, disputes can result in friction that can lead to high ticket litigation with no clear winner. Strife from within an organization can be more dangerous than any external threat. Partnership disputes are quite often very personal because they occur between parties who were once confidantes or even friends. The need for even handed negotiation in the face of often intense emotion is critical.
The manner in which partnership disputes are dealt with can make the difference between financial loss and a desired outcome. To alleviate the potential for conflict, RPNA attorneys work with clients to avoid dissonance and resolve discordance before it becomes unmanageable. However, in the event dissolution becomes the only option, the firm advises clients on meaningful solutions to maximize recovery.
