Resolve A Wide Range Of Disputes

Attorney Hamilton is able to become involved at any point whenever a partnership is failing due to a number of reasons, such as:

• One partner controlling the books and not providing information
• A partner not paying his or her fair share
• One of the partners believing that another partner is withholding money or other items
• Minority Shareholder Oppression

She can utilize any method of resolution, such as mediation or arbitration, to attempt to resolve the matter out of court. Through negotiations, she may be able to resolve things by redrafting business agreements and involving a new accounting firm. However, if these methods do not work, she can take the matter to court and let a judge or jury decide how the partnership dispute should be resolved.

Partnership Dissolutions

In some cases, the issues that are at the heart of a partnership dispute may be too great to overcome.

Helping Small And Family-Owned Businesses Resolve Personal Disputes

Some of the most contentious partnership disputes happen among individuals who own small businesses and family-owned businesses because it’s not business, it’s personal. The success of the business may have depended on the owners and the small nature of the business. However, when emotions get involved, partners may turn on each other and become litigious.

She is committed to helping clients work out their partnership disputes and maintain an objective perspective on their partnership relationships, and personal relationships with partners, whenever possible.
