Partnership and Shareholder Disputes

Disputes do happen in business. As a partner in a business you may need outside help with dispute resolution to find a workable solution.

Business partnerships in Australia are often regulated by a written agreement. Additionally the Partnership Act 1892 (NSW) may apply in describing the legal rights and remedies of the members of the partnership.

Disputes in relation to shareholdings may be based partly on a shareholders’ agreement. Sometimes these may not even be in writing. The Corporations Act regulates the behaviour of Directors and members of corporations and provides remedies for “oppressed” minority shareholders to seek assistance from the court to protect their legitimate legal interests.

WARNING
Formal legal disputes in relation to partnerships can be expensive and time consuming. They must be conducted as efficiently as possible. You want to be able to refocus your time, energy and money on the business as quickly as possible.
