Shareholder & Corporate Disputes

Disputes among shareholders, directors, officers, and business partners often involve more than a single contractual issue. Questions of ownership, control, corporate governance, fiduciary obligations, access to information, and the future of the business may arise at the same time.

BYW LAW acts in disputes involving closely held corporations and other business relationships, including shareholder oppression claims, ownership and control disputes, director and officer disputes, and claims involving fiduciary duties and corporate governance. We work to understand both the corporate structure and the history of the relationship giving rise to the dispute.

These matters may require urgent court applications, access to corporate records, negotiated restructuring or buyouts, or litigation through trial. Our approach is to identify the client’s practical objective early and develop the litigation strategy around that objective.
