What this usually involves

Shareholder disputes damage the underlying business quickly. Most are resolved by a negotiated buy-out with a valuation mechanism rather than a full petition.

  • Unfair prejudice petitions under section 994
  • Valuation and buy-out negotiations
  • Access to company books and records

Common questions

What counts as unfair prejudice?
Conduct such as exclusion from management, diversion of business or excessive director pay that unfairly harms a minority shareholder.
Is mediation worth trying?
Yes - courts expect it, and it is usually far cheaper than a contested petition.
