Disputes concerning the ownership, management and control of closely-held businesses and partnerships can threaten the very existence of the underlying entity. They draw on company time and resources and, based on the personal relationships involved, often cause emotions to run high. Whether corporate control is challenged, fiduciary responsibility is questioned, or minority shareholders allege a freeze-out, B&M is sensitive to the personal dynamics at hand and has the experience and skills to mitigate damage to the company while aggressively resolving the dispute both in and out of court. If a business or partnership must be dissolved, B&M is prepared to litigate to ensure that our clients receive all the business assets to which they are entitled.
