Protecting Your Interests During Business Dissolution

dissolution of marriage of two adultsYes, it is possible to anticipate and avoid business disputes. It is common for business “breakups” to happen. Sometimes an internal buy-out works. Sometimes a third party is needed to facilitate the purchase. Bottom line, even receivership or dissolution could become a necessity. You need to know your rights and responsibilities when other business owners come into play. You need to figure out if it is easier to walk away, push for damages, and/or fight for control. At what costs? If you are selling, reformulating, and/or dissolving a business. Officially or not, it is crucial to work with a skilled business law attorney in Philadelphia. Don’t be the poster child for the dangers of indifference.

Since 1978, the Olen Law Office has provided legal advice and representation to business owners seeking to save, reconfigure and, if need be, break up an organization. When there are no pre-existing agreements detailing the process for a business divorce, or they are not followed, the dissolution can become particularly emotional and contentious. It is our goal to fully assess the situation, and formulate specifically tailored strategies that move clients toward a successful resolution consistent with their needs.
