partnership disputes

Partnerships and LLPs are almost always tightly-knit businesses (emotionally as well as financially) and, if problems arise, they can be magnified by the very personal nature of the business relationship. If something goes wrong, it’s vital that it is resolved speedily and decisively if it’s not to become a drain on the business and its resources, but it’s rarely sensible for those involved in the dispute to try to sort out the problem themselves. It the context of a business founded on a strong personal relationship between the partners, it’s important to have a lawyer who not only understands the detailed mechanics of partnership law but who also can handle the negotiations delicately.

The lawyers at White & Black have advised across the full range of partnerships and LLPs, including architects, surveyors, medical practitioners, publishers and even other solicitors. We try to resolve disputes by negotiation and we have a reputation for finding practical solutions which, wherever possible, minimise the damage and disruption to the partnership’s business.
