Dissolution Of Partnership
Whether the partner relationship is irretrievably broken, or you are mutually parting ways to pursue other opportunities, sorting out the intermingled interests is a daunting task. Christopher T. Adams provides the sophisticated analysis and representation to protect your interests in equitably dividing the assets and liabilities. As in a divorce, one party may be entitled to a greater split if that partner was more involved in the business or loaned money to the operation. We provide cost-effective counsel to achieve an out-of-court dissolution that avoids future obligations and legal disputes, but Attorney Adams also is a skilled trial lawyer who will not let a once-trusted partner walk all over you.
Shareholder Disputes
In a small business, owners commonly mix their personal interests and assets with the best interests of the corporation, other stockholders and partners. When conflicts arise, the challenge is to separate those interests out while maintaining the integrity of the company. Chris Adams understands business finance and accounting, proportional investment and loss, minority shareholder rights and all the other factors in resolving shareholder disputes.
Our firm has represented both sides in force-outs and voluntary buyouts, fights for control of the business, and disputes over profits or admitting new partners and shareholders. We have also handled dissolutions of corporations (C-corp or S-corp), LLCs and family limited partnerships.
Chris Adams is a graduate of the University of Georgia’s Business School and attained his law degree at UGA. He has run his own successful law practice since 1992 and provides full-service representation to small businesses, including entity formation and contract review and litigation.
