Shareholder disputes can emerge for various reasons, often stemming from conflicting interests or misunderstandings regarding roles and responsibilities. Some common matters our shareholder dispute lawyers have been a part of include:
Disputes frequently arise when one or more shareholders fail to comply with agreed terms. This can include breaches related to voting rights, major decision making, capital raising, dividend distribution or share transfers.
Shareholders may have differing views on company strategy, expansion plans or operational decisions. These disagreements can create deadlock situations, stall progress and affect profitability.
Tensions can build when certain shareholders feel that their financial or operational contributions are not fairly recognised or compensated, leading to disputes over salary, dividends or bonuses.
If a shareholder, director or key executive is suspected of financial misconduct, fraud or improper fund allocation, it can result in severe trust issues and legal battles.
Majority shareholders sometimes make decisions that negatively impact minority shareholders, such as issuing new shares that dilute ownership or restricting voting rights. Protecting minority shareholder rights is essential in maintaining a fair and equitable business environment.
Given the severity of these matters, having qualified legal counsel is imperative. With a specialisation in commercial law, ADVIILAW is well-equipped to provide tailored advice to assist you with your matter. We strive to ensure cost-effective, proactive resolutions that maintain your business’s reputation.
