Some disputes may be settled within weeks through mediation, while others requiring litigation can take several months or longer.

A breach occurs when a partner fails to fulfill their contractual duties, which can harm the partnership’s functioning. Legal remedies may include damages, specific performance, or dissolution depending on the breach’s nature. Prompt legal action is important to address breaches effectively and protect your rights.
Not all partnership disputes lead to litigation. Many are resolved through negotiation, mediation, or arbitration, which are often more cost-effective and less adversarial. Litigation is typically considered when other methods fail or when a legal precedent must be established.
Attorneys may charge hourly rates, flat fees, or contingency fees depending on the case type and complexity. It’s important to discuss fee structures upfront to understand costs. Transparent billing helps clients make informed decisions about their legal representation.
Before consulting an attorney, gather all relevant documents such as partnership agreements, financial statements, correspondence, and records of attempts to resolve the dispute. Having detailed information enables your attorney to assess your case accurately and provide effective advice.
