Nothing lasts forever, and businesses are certainly no different. In some cases, businesses dissolve for amiable reasons: like a merger or buyout in which the business carries on under different owners. Receiving a profitable offer for the acquisition of a business is usually seen as a great success for business founders. In other cases, businesses are forced into dissolution due to extended periods of insolvency. Regardless of whether the dissolution of a business is amicable, there are many legal details and contingencies that require experienced business law attorneys.

Partnership Disputes
Some dissolutions result in one way or another from partnership disputes. Conversely, partnership disputes often arise from disagreements in the process of dissolution. Our business dissolution lawyers have a wealth of experience helping our clients resolve their disputes that arise, including:
- Partnership agreements and disputes
- Fraud
- Breach of contract
We offer business litigation services and alternative dispute resolution (ADR) services like mediation and arbitration.
Estate Planning Implications
If the nature or ownership of a business changes, the interests in that former entity will change, as well. If you have an interest in a business that dissolved, you will need to update your estate plan as soon as possible so that it reflects this change. We will help you revise your wills and trust documents to include a more accurate, up-to-date business succession plan.
