In the modern corporate world, partnerships are usually formed based on a written and signed contract or agreement which spell out the exact terms and conditions. Despite this common occurrence, there is no need for a written agreement for a partnership to form. However, a written contract will properly state the respective rights of each partner, the fiduciary duties of the partners, as well as the pre-requisites for dissolving the partnership. Either party in the partnership can choose to withdraw from the partnership whenever they please or sell their partnership interest. Since partnerships can form without such written agreements, an attorney can definitely serve to help you enhance your case and resolve the dispute in your favor.
If you are a minority shareholder, you can sue for action for recovery and dissolution if you can prove that you are being oppressed. This can be done if you or along with other shareholders own 20% of the company stock. An experienced attorney can help you to carry out a determination of oppression, which will find out the majority shareholders are running exactly how the company.
Conversely, if you are a majority shareholder and are facing a dissolution case, you can choose to fight against the shareholder oppression action or buy the shares of the minority shareholders at fair value. Note that the company itself can also buy these interests from the shareholders. However, these processes can be difficult to navigate if you lack experience in the legal field. As such, hiring a good attorney will help you to gain some advantage in the dispute.
In most states, partners in a partnership are entitled to the management of the partnership. Hence, partners therefore have the right to look at transactions that are being made and the accounting that is involved in the running of the company. If a partner is excluded from business, he or she has the right to fight for the dissolving of the partnership.
If you are a partner and feel that your rights as a partner have been violated, or if there has been a breach of any pre-existing contract which stipulates the terms of the partnership, you should work with us here at Weltz Law.
