- Family Business Disputes. Smaller, family-run businesses can experience unique conflicts that require an especially tailored and nuanced legal approach. Many family-owned companies struggle with issues of succession when someone suddenly resigns or passes away. Our firm can help you proactively create robust exit strategies and resolve issues of succession.
- Partnership and Joint Venture Disputes. Disputes can quickly threaten to overwhelm partnerships or joint ventures. Personal issues and disagreements over the direction of the business can cause significant disruptions. Our firm is experienced in managing and resolving these delicate disputes. We can review the terms of the partnership or joint venture agreement and explore all available legal solutions, including the potential removal of a partner.
- Restrictive Covenant and Non-Compete Agreements. Restrictive covenant agreements, including non-compete provisions, can be used to avoid situations where employees take sensitive company information to a competitor. Massachusetts courts place these agreements under a heavy amount of scrutiny, so it is important to ensure the agreements’ terms are enforceable in scope. We can assist you with the enforcement of these agreements or defend your business if you become involved in related litigation.
- Trade Secret Litigation. Your company’s trade secrets and intellectual property are a large part of what makes it competitive. The unlawful exploitation or publication of these secrets can cause lasting harm to your business. Should those secrets be stolen or abused, our team can help you enforce your rights and recover damages through litigation.
