PARTNERSHIP
DISPUTES
A dispute can arise in a partnership for many reasons. Partners may disagree about how to run the business; one partner may breach their fiduciary duty or violate the terms of a contract. Perhaps the partnership is breaking up, and the partners cannot agree on the value of the business or how to divide assets.

Other remedies sought in partnership disputes include negotiating or amending a partnership agreement, division of partnership assets, payment of partnership debts, buyout of a partner, and dissolution of partnership.
