Escalated disputes and crisis situations between shareholders

In addition to preventive measures, we also focus intensively on situations where a dispute between shareholders has already arisen. Typically, these involve cases where partners disagree, one of them stops actively working for the company, trust between the founders is lost, the company begins to show an unexpected decline in profitability despite the same or higher revenue, or there is suspicion of asset stripping, non-standard transactions, invoicing through related parties, or other conduct contrary to the company’s interests.

In these situations, we help clients quickly assess the actual state of affairs, evaluate the legal, commercial, and tax implications, and choose a strategy that aligns with their position and objectives. Sometimes the priority is to stabilize the situation and create room for an agreement; at other times, it is necessary to prepare a decisive procedural or corporate course of action that will protect the client’s investment, position within the company, or access to information and assets.

We represent clients in complex negotiations among shareholders, in the preparation and conduct of existing disputes, and in the enforcement of claims related to breaches of duty by executives or shareholders. We also assist in situations involving the exercise of shareholder rights, access to information, challenging resolutions of corporate bodies, the liability of members of statutory bodies, or protection against conduct that harms the company or other shareholders.
