Our Expertise We Can Handle It All
Corporate Representation
Corporate Entities
Corporations are recognized as separate legal entities distinct from their shareholders, officers, and directors. Legal representation involves acting on behalf of the corporation as a distinct entity.
Board of Directors
Directors owe fiduciary duties to the corporation and its shareholders, including the duty of loyalty and the duty of care. Corporate attorneys often advise and represent the board in matters related to decision-making, governance, and compliance.
Officers and Agents
Corporate officers act as agents of the corporation and may have the authority to bind the corporation in contractual agreements. Legal representation may involve advising and representing officers in their official capacities.
Shareholder Rights
Shareholders may be represented in certain matters, especially in cases of disputes, by corporate attorneys. Legal representation may involve addressing shareholder concerns, proxy contests, and shareholder meetings.
Corporate Disputes
Internal Disputes
Disputes among shareholders, directors, or officers are typically governed by corporate bylaws, operating agreements, or shareholder agreements. Resolution mechanisms may include arbitration, mediation, or litigation, depending on the terms of the governing documents.
Contractual Disputes
Corporate representation involves handling disputes arising from contracts entered into by the corporation. Legal remedies may include damages, specific performance, or other relief as specified in the contract.
Regulatory Compliance
Corporations must comply with various regulations, and disputes may arise with regulatory bodies. Legal representation involves navigating regulatory investigations and enforcement actions.
