The firm regularly represents clients in corporate, partnership and other business relationship matters. We have developed particular expertise in corporate divorces and resolving business disputes among partners. In many cases, we have negotiated contractual provisions to protect partners’ expectations, and in some cases to compel a buyout if those expectations are not met. In other cases, we have helped minority and equal partners maximize the value of their investment by working through acrimonious situations and creating bylaws and agreements which make future actions more predictable. In addition, for established businesses or start-ups, we prepare shareholders’ agreements, operating agreements, employment agreements and management agreements between the entity and its respective owner or employee constituencies.

In addition, we represent clients in negotiating suitable lending relationships with lenders, investors or existing partners to create predictable long-term financing for the company to use for expansion.
