What We Do
Practice Areas
Representing businesses and their owners across the disputes that come with building, running, and parting ways with a company — from the boardroom to the courtroom.
Our work spans four primary practice areas: (1) Shareholder, LLC & Partnership Litigation; (2) Business Litigation; (3) Real Estate Litigation; and (4) Appeals.
Shareholder, LLC & Partnership Litigation
When the people who own a business no longer agree on how, or whether, to run it together, we represent owners on both sides of the divide.
Shareholder Oppression
Representing oppressed minority owners, and controlling owners accused of the same, who are frozen out of management, denied distributions or records, or unfairly diluted.
Breach of Fiduciary Duty
Claims and defenses for self-dealing, usurping corporate opportunities, diverting revenue, and using company assets for personal benefit.
Partnership & LLC Disputes
Conflicts over management authority, capital and profit allocations, capital calls, dissociation and dissolution, and enforcement of partnership and operating agreements.
Business Divorce & Buyouts
Separating owners through negotiated or court-ordered buyouts, redemptions, and dissolution — including the valuation fights that decide what an interest is worth.
Deadlock
Disputes arising from deadlock of directors, shareholders, members, or partners, including negotiated buyouts, provisional directors, or receivership or custodianship.
Ownership & Governance
Disputed transfers of interests, contests over voting control and board or manager authority, and enforcement of shareholder agreements, buy-sell agreements, and operating agreements.

Appeals
Appeals and the motions that decide cases — and the work at the trial level that makes a result hold up on review.
Appeals
Plenary and interlocutory appeals from final judgments and appealable orders — mastering the record, writing persuasive briefs that frame the issues, and presenting effective oral argument to the appellate judges.
Post-Trial Motions
Motions for rehearing, new trial, and to alter or amend — the last chance to frame and preserve issues for appeal. Stays pending appeal — protecting clients’ rights while the appeal is pending.
Petitions for Extraordinary Writs
Certiorari, mandamus, prohibition, and quo warranto — the vehicles for challenging non-final orders and preventing harm that cannot be undone on final appeal.
Trial Support & Error Preservation
Providing extra horsepower to trial counsel by ensuring preservation of the record, crafting jury instructions, drafting and arguing dispositive and other key motions, and building the appellate case while trial is still underway.
