| Protecting the Rights of Business Owners |
| What We Do |
"I have devoted my twenty-two years of professional life to representing businesses in the
resolution of complex and difficult disputes. In particular, I have focused in the last decade
on the promotion of the rights of persons who own stock or partnership interests in all
kinds of businesses. I have written and lectured extensively in the unique and developing
area of the law governing squeeze-outs and shareholder oppression. We have handled
significant cases on the 'cutting edge' of the law of shareholder oppression, including
many cases that have been reported in the press or have generated published opinions
breaking new legal ground. We have assembled a dedicated team of professionals with the
knowledge and the skills to protect the rights of business owners and to handle all types of
litigation challenges facing business owners. Our philosophy and methods of practice are
unique and are designed to deliver maximum value and successful results to our clients."

| Our Practice Areas |
Shareholder Oppression
Employment Disputes
Business Litigation
- Our principal area of practice is shareholder oppression--cases involving the legal rights and duties in
closely-held corporations, S-corporations, partnerships, and other private business entities. Our cases
involve issues of breach of fiduciary duties, shareholder rights, inspection of corporate records,
squeeze-outs, buy-outs, and shareholder derivative claims. We represent business owners in
disputes with their co-owners--shareholders, corporate officers and directors, general partners, limited
partners, members of limited liability companies. We assist minority shareholders in protecting their
rights and resisting minority shareholder oppression and squeeze-outs. We assist majority owners who
are accused of wrong-doing or who believe they are being set up for a lawsuit. We represent partners
in splitting up their businesses and in protecting their interests. More about our shareholder
oppression practice.
Employment Disputes
- Most business owners are also employees in the business. We represent shareholders and employees
who face the loss of compensation and contract rights. We also assist business owners in dealing with
the claims made against them by their employees--claims of discrimination, hostile work environment,
loss of benefits, breach of employment agreements, unpaid wages and commissions.
Business Litigation
- We represent businesses of all sizes in litigation of their business disputes, including breach of
contract, fraud, deceptive trade practices, unfair competition, defamation, etc.
