Partnership Disputes in Colorado

You might have one or more business partners if you run a business. Despite their potential for great success, partnerships can also result in disagreements. Having an attorney deal with your uncompromising business partner is essential in the event of a partnership dispute.

What Can Lead to a Colorado business partnership dispute?

When partners must agree on important issues, such as:

• how the business should run,
• how profits should be used or shared, or
• what should happen now that a partner wants to leave the partnership,

Disagreements in these fundamental matters often lead to irreconcilable business partnership disputes. Partners may resort to litigation if negotiation and mediation are unsuccessful in resolving these disagreements.

If you want to settle a pre-litigation negotiation on terms that work for you, you should talk to an attorney, so they can protect your best interests in the business. Or, if you find yourself in litigation, let us help preserve and protect your interests.

How can a partnership dispute be avoided?

Conflicts can often be avoided in the first place with the help of a well drafted and negotiated partnership agreement. The roles and responsibilities of each partner and the procedures for resolving disagreements can be outlined in a partnership agreement. However, it’s possible that even well-drafted partnership agreements won’t be able to anticipate future disputes. In this case, a properly drafted partnership agreement will clearly lay out the terms and procedure for the partners to separate or dissolve the business venture.
