Shareholder Problems and Fiduciary Duties Lawsuits and Cases
Shareholder related fiduciary duties lawsuits and cases involve the relationship between two parties that obligates one party to act solely in the interest of the other party. The fiduciary party is one that knowingly accepts that trust and confidence to exercise his or her expertise and discretion to act on the other’s, the client’s, behalf. We work with various types of shareholder related fiduciary duties lawsuits and cases.
Shareholder related fiduciary duties lawsuits are varied, but can include some of the following:
-
Officers and directors of a corporation, which owe fiduciary duties to their shareholders. For instance, they cannot enter into deals for the company which benefit them personally over the shareholders’ interests. As an example of a shareholder fiduciary duties lawsuit, our firm represented a former officer and engineer who also owned 25% of corporate shares, who was terminated by a new officer. The officer led the company into guaranteeing the debt of the officer whose company bought a building into which the company moved, paying rent to the officer’s separate company. The company learned that the client would be suing the company, and filed a retaliatory lawsuit for supposed “misappropriation of trade secrets”. Eventually the case resolved on terms favorable to our client.
Shareholder related fiduciary duties lawsuits and cases are very common and occur all the time, and arise from a wide variety of situations and circumstances, like the ones described above, and many others. Our firm has the experience needed to win these types of shareholder related fiduciary duties cases for you.
