Cordier Halsey advises Arizona business owners, partners, shareholders, members, and closely held entities in disputes involving governance, fiduciary duties, ownership rights, control of the company, and the unwinding or restructuring of business relationships. These matters often involve not only legal claims, but also the practical need to protect operations, preserve value, and position the business for a workable path forward.
We help clients assess governing documents, internal decision-making history, financial and operational concerns, and the dispute posture between the parties. Some matters can be resolved through negotiation and structured separation. Others require litigation or coordinated business strategy when the disagreement affects management authority, business continuity, or access to information and assets.
This work aligns naturally with our business litigation and business formation, governance, and general counsel practice. We represent clients in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Maricopa County, and throughout Arizona.
Business owners, partners, shareholders, members, executives, and closely held companies dealing with internal conflicts over ownership, governance, control, or business direction.
We focus on both the legal claims and the business consequences, including continuity, leverage, separation options, document control, and the decision-makers who need a workable resolution.
