How we can assist
What we can review
We first clarify whether the consultation is for the entity, a shareholder or a manager. This identifies whom the firm could represent and allows opposing interests to be examined before accepting the matter.
Participation and agreements
We review participation records, formation documents and shareholder agreements. We identify documented facts and disagreements about rights and commitments needing clarification.
Management and decisions
We examine minutes, meeting notices, powers and disputed decisions. The review identifies who acted, under what authority and with what supporting documentation.
Information and transactions
We organize concerns about access to documents, transactions and assets. Accounting and economic questions may require specialist input to complete the evaluation.
Negotiation and continuity
We consider proposals to resolve differences, reorganize relationships or examine an exit. If court action is contemplated, its support and representation scope are reviewed.
The first conversation
How the initial review works
The first meeting defines the client’s position and records they can legitimately provide. Those materials help identify urgent decisions, information gaps and alternatives requiring study. A negotiation or representation proposal is defined after potential conflicts of interest have been examined.

Questions about this service
Can I consult as an individual shareholder?
Yes. Explain your connection to the entity and your objective. Advising one shareholder does not mean representing the company or the other shareholders.
Can an agreed exit be considered?
Yes. Participation buyouts, reorganization or separation of interests can be reviewed according to the documents, valuation needed and parties’ willingness.
What if I do not have every document?
Provide those you hold and explain what is missing. The initial review identifies records and ways of obtaining them to consider, without treating unverified events as established facts.
