Boardroom and Shareholder Disputes
Boardroom and Shareholder Disputes
All organisations, whether private companies, public companies, the public service, partnerships or family businesses, have inherent areas of possible dispute. Pursuing settlement through litigation can be costly, lengthy and very public. Mediation offers an avenue which can be explored separately or as part of a corporate conflict resolution strategy.
Mediation allows the exploration of multiple avenues and solutions. This is particularly useful in partnership, small company and family business disputes.
Information made public during litigation can prejudice an organisation’s public standing. Mediation settlements have the advantage of being undisclosed and confidential.
Once the agreement is signed it has legal effect
In these disputes it is frequently very important that the parties continue in a workable and productive relationship. Mediation aids this and the provision of post mediation assistance helps to smooth the way forwards.
