Corporate disputes

Our corporate disputes team are expert problem solvers and have worked with both public and private companies, owner-managed businesses, minority shareholders, high net worth investors and entrepreneurs on a wide range of corporate disputes.

Corporate disputes take many forms; they can arise out of a joint venture agreement; a shareholders agreement; a partnership agreement; a corporate acquisition; or simply a dispute between directors.

We provide smart solutions at all stages of the dispute resolution process. This includes:

• early advice to avoid or prevent a risk or issue escalating and minimise disruption;
• innovative solutions to maintain longstanding relationships where necessary
• seeking settlement on commercially acceptable terms by using various methods such as mediation; or,
• litigation or arbitration, as appropriate
• urgent action to protect your business including steps to obtain injunctive relief to enforce restrictive covenants, prevent actions by directors in breach of their duties or protect against the mis-use of confidential information.
