Partnership disputes - 2 partners arguingPartnership disputes can screw up business operations. Partnership disputes arise for a variety of issues, including, but not limited to: personality conflicts, financial matters, management issues, employee issues, or the current or future and direction that the business is headed.

Assisting Clients in Partnership Disputes in Orange County

Partnership disputes attorney, Valerie L. Kramer, is often retained by the partner or partners who are determined to solve the problem that is hindering the partnership or joint venture.

If one or more of the partners are also part of a family business, that dynamic adds an extra layer of complexity. Family or not, a good starting point is enlisting a 3rd party – an experienced partnership disputes attorney – to negotiate (or mediate) the disagreement to find some common ground for a new understanding. Valerie L. Kramer is usually able to help her clients negotiate satisfactory resolutions.

If some sort of amicable resolution cannot be reached attorney Kramer might then suggest a formal mediation to where she represents you and the other partner secures a lawyer to represent him or her in a one or two-day mediation. If it cannot be settled in an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) venue, then it is likely going to be settled in a courtroom. Valerie is right at home in either setting.

Avoiding Partnership Disputes in the First Place

Carefully drafted, comprehensive partnership agreements that address important issues that may arise during any business may be the best form of partnership dispute prevention. Better partnership agreements will address the process for handling common, yet predictable disagreements, conflicts, or tie votes on important business decisions. Moreover, well-drafted partnership agreements will address such ‘what-ifs’ as what to do in the event of a partner divorcing, retiring, becoming disabled, or desiring to leave the partnership. That said, even with comprehensive and thorough agreements, partnership disputes arise in ALL partnerships. These partnership conflicts can so compromise day-to-day operations that the profitability of the business or venture suffers.
