Calgary Business Dispute Lawyer

CALGARY BUSINESS DISPUTE LAWYER

At Neufeld Legal P.C., we undertake novel, complex and high-stakes disputes, which is largely restricted to the following disputes and litigation*:

1. the purchase or sale of a corporate business [mergers, acquisitions and divestitures];

2. corporate matters specifically related to unanimous shareholders agreements or joint venture / partnership agreements;

3.  internal business management / corporate governance issues - director's liability, officer's liability, shareholder oppression claims; and

4. international business claims - providing Canadian legal representation for foreign companies in their disputes involving business transactions in Canada.

We recognize that irrespective of the legal safeguards that are implemented to protect one's business, there are always areas of vulnerability. And it is such vulnerabilities that provide the basis for disputes and litigation. Resolving business disputes is rarely a simple or straight forward task. There tend to be a multitude of variables, positions and interpretations that are in conflict throughout most disputes. And to make matters worse, emotions and personalities play have a major influence upon dispute resolution, oftentimes impacting the decision-making process. With these competing forces creating considerable friction between the disputing parties, dispute resolution has become increasingly time consuming and costly, such that settling the dispute prior to trial tends to be the preferred option of most parties. 

Our law firm's dispute resolution and litigation practice is restricted to specific business disputes (as set forth above), whether acting as principal lawyer, co-counsel or advising your primary legal counsel. For more information, contact us at Chris@NeufeldLegal.com or 403-400-4092.

* We are highly selective as to the commercial litigation matters that we undertake, focusing exclusively upon those matters that we believe our legal skills and experience have the ability to provide the legal representation that would effectively advance their legal case.
