Partnership Disputes
When a dispute arises between partners, it can negatively impact the reputation and career of the partners involved, as well as having a detrimental effect on the business itself.
At Rotheras we act swiftly to deal with partnership disputes in order to settle the matter early, and regularly use negotiation, mediation and arbitration as efficient and low cost methods for resolving disputes.
We have vast experience of working with partnerships and individual partners in various sectors and professions and have a deep understanding of the regulatory and commercial frameworks that partnerships operate in.
Why use Rotheras for Partnership Disputes?
We act for general partnerships, partnerships at will, limited partnerships, and limited liability partnerships (LLPs) as well as for individual partners and members.
We have extensive experience advising companies in a range of sectors and professions in relation to partnership disputes.
We can refer you to our commercial department who can advise you on drawing up a partnership agreement to protect you from any disputes that may arise (again, may need to be clear that this is the commercial department not dispute resolution and will need to be referred).
We can provide cross-department advice to ensure all aspects of your matter are addressed.
We will seek to resolve your dispute through negotiation or Alternative Dispute Resolution where possible.
We can advise and support you if your matter goes to court and have experience in successfully preparing and arguing cases that go to the County Court or High Court.
We can advise on unlawful discrimination of a partner on the grounds of race, gender, religion, disability, marital status, sexual orientation, pregnancy, civil partnership or gender reassignment.
We can help you with:
- Breach of statutory duties
- Breach of fiduciary duties
- Breach of partnership agreement terms
- Partner liability
- Partner misconduct
- Leaving or retiring from a partnership
- Fraud
- Dissolution/winding up a partnership
- Discrimination against partners
- Enforcing restrictive covenants
- Voluntary and involuntary partner departures

This was my first experience using a solicitor, something I felt quite daunted about. Rothera Sharp (Greg and Petra) put me at ease and were very helpful.

Last year I experienced a car accident, as a front seat passenger. I put forward a personal injury claim with Rothera Sharp. From start to finish, my claim has been dealt with efficiently and professionally, and I have always felt my best interests were considered. All communications were made via letter or email to inform me of all further updates. My claim has now come to an end and I am very happy with the overall outcome. I would recommend Rothera Sharp for their service.

We cannot recommend Chris Powell of Rothera Sharp more highly. Mr Powell demonstrated the upmost professionalism with a high level of knowledge of the area for which he was representing us. Anyone needing representation/advice regarding the area of haulage will find that Chris Powell and Rothera Sharp are the best choice.
