The limited liability company is the entity of choice for most small business owners, for its flexibility, tax advantages and protection of personal assets. But when the operating agreement is ambiguous or the stakeholders are in conflict, an LLC dispute presents unique legal issues.
Kirsch Gartenberg Howard LLP represents any party in LLC dispute resolution and dissolution. We practice in northern New Jersey and New York City, representing members (or outside managers) of small companies and family-owned operations formed as a limited liability company.
New Jersey and NYC Business Dispute Attorneys
Personalities clash. One owner accuses the other of siphoning funds. One party believes he or she is doing the lion's share of the work for the carcass of the profits. Family members squabble over business succession. Boom or bust cycles create rifts.
Attorneys Thomas Howard and Amie Gartenberg are skilled at getting to the core of internal business disputes and bringing stakeholders together to resolve differences efficiently and cost-effectively. Mediation or an amicable buyout may be the best for all.
Tom and Amie are also veteran lawyers who can capably protect your interests when there is no alternative to disbanding the entity or going to court to force a buyout. We can advise on all considerations in LLC litigation, including cost-benefit analysis, business valuation, tax implications, commingled personal assets, liability for debts of the business, and the most advantageous venue for a court battle.
