Corporate Law |
|
Even parties with the best of intentions get into disputes, and partners or shareholders in close corporations are not immune from this. We often represent one of the owners, or the entity itself, to resolve such disputes, whether through a sale, litigation or other means. When valuation of the entity is the issue, we have substantial experience working with economists and accountants to determine a company’s value. Our attorneys, and particularly Partner Wes Howard, have represented both claimants and respondents in scores of security arbitrations. Those arbitrations involve both public and private financings. Mr. Howard has handled disputes before the American Arbitration Association, the National Association of Securities Dealers and the New York Stock Exchange. He has appeared in courtrooms or arbitration hearings in Colorado, Texas, Nebraska, Montana, New Mexico and California regarding financings and securities issues. In addition to representing claimants, we have handled disputes regarding underwriters, officers, directors and other professionals regarding allegations of securities fraud and related misconduct. We have developed an effective method for case preparation based on creative and thorough preparation to maximize the chances of a successful result. Business Torts, Fraud, Director & Officer Duties Our firm’s experienced litigators have prosecuted and defended breach of fiduciary duty, fraud, misrepresentation, negligence and other business tort claims. Our attorneys’ experience in this area is broader than our typical real estate or construction client – we also have advocated for manufacturing, agricultural, financial services and other professional clients. Partner Wes Howard is particularly experienced in defending directors and officers of for-profit and non-profit organizations from allegations of fraud, breach of fiduciary duty and other malfeasance.
