We take the time to understand the people and pressures behind your dispute; what’s driving the conflict, what’s at stake, and what outcome matters most to you. From there, we develop a plan: whether that’s negotiation, mediation, or, if unavoidable, formal legal proceedings.
We’re experienced in resolving disputes between directors and shareholders, advising on breaches of directors’ duties, navigating removal of directors, responding to unfair prejudice petitions, and handling deadlock situations in owner-managed businesses and LLPs. We also advise on derivative claims and issues arising under LLP Agreements.
Where documents like the Shareholder Agreement or Articles of Association are relevant, we review them in detail and explain your rights and risks in plain English. If the documents are missing or silent, we help you understand your statutory and fiduciary duties, and how best to proceed.
We also work closely with corporate and employment law colleagues to advise on exits, governance changes, and reputational risk – all with minimal business disruption.
Discreet, strategic and experienced, Loch helps you take back control of the situation and protect the business you’ve worked hard to build.
