XPX Tri-State New York: Defining Success

Company Breakups and Owner Disputes

Sometimes owners’ exits are unplanned – when they can no longer get along with other owners, or when their objectives significantly diverge.  This program covers:

• the discipline of analyzing and negotiating business breakups and shareholder disputes
• legal rules that affect resolution of these matters
• business, tax, and financing considerations
• negotiating leverage
• case studies and solutions reached – war stories of the presenters

The focus is on corporations and LLCs organized in Maryland, D.C., and Virginia.  The presenters, Karen Shapiro and Tom Parrott, are business and M&A attorneys with substantial real-life experience in negotiating resolutions of breakups and owner disputes with and without litigation.
