Partnership and shareholders agreements are an essential part of business structuring; they help business owners establish the foundation and guidelines for ownership structures and decision-making processes within their business. Investing in these agreements clarifies roles, responsibilities, and profit-sharing mechanisms, fostering stability, aligning interests, and preventing potential conflicts among stakeholders.
Our shareholders and partnership agreement lawyers can advise you on:
- Roles and responsibilities of shareholders
- Exit strategies
- The price of any share sale/purchase
- Restrictions on outgoing shareholders competing against the company
- The ability for founding shareholders to veto certain fundamental company decisions, or alternatively the percentage of shareholders’ approval required to do
- Payment of company earnings to shareholders
