Litigation can be expensive, but the way a case is prepared and managed can make a significant difference.
In this video, Christopher Burgon explains why clients should be clear about their objectives, provide all relevant documents and work closely with a solicitor they trust.
Proper preparation, organised evidence and a clear strategy can prevent unnecessary correspondence, emotional reactions and costly arguments that do not move the dispute closer to a resolution.

What can a minority shareholder do when the directors controlling a company are themselves the people damaging it?
In this video, Christopher Burgon explains derivative actions. A shareholder may ask the court for permission to bring proceedings on behalf of the company against directors who are acting against its interests.
This can allow a minority shareholder to challenge misconduct, recover value for the company and ultimately protect the value of their own shareholding.
If you believe directors are taking money from a company or otherwise undermining its value, book a free 30-minute meeting through the website, send an email or call Christopher Burgon Solicitors.

Winning a court case may mean little if the other side has already moved or disposed of the assets needed to satisfy the judgment.
In this video, Christopher Burgon explains how a freezing order can restrict someone from dealing with their assets while a dispute is ongoing. Because these orders are extremely powerful, the court must be satisfied that there is an arguable case and a real risk that assets could be dissipated.
If you are concerned that someone may move assets overseas or otherwise dispose of them before your claim is resolved, book a free 30-minute meeting through the website, email the firm or give Christopher Burgon Solicitors a call.

How much is your business really worth, and what happens when someone inside it begins undermining that value?
In this video, Christopher Burgon explains that a company’s value is not limited to its annual profits and physical assets. It also represents years, and sometimes decades, of hard work, investment and dedication.
When business partners take company money, compete against the business or act against its interests, the value you created may quickly begin to disappear.

When the value of your business, possibly running into millions, are at risk, choosing legal representation purely on price can be an expensive mistake.
In this video, Christopher Burgon compares using a non-specialist local solicitor with instructing a large City firm. One may lack the litigation expertise needed for a complex director or shareholder dispute, while the other can involve very high hourly rates and work being delegated to junior lawyers.
Christopher explains why his firm’s specialist litigation experience, transparent costs and experienced solicitors working directly on your case can provide a better balance.
If you are facing a substantial director or shareholder dispute, book a free 30-minute meeting through the website, send an email or call Christopher Burgon Solicitors.

Choosing the lowest quote for legal fees may appear to save money, but it can make a commercial dispute considerably more expensive.
In this video, Christopher Burgon explains the risks of instructing non-specialist solicitors, accepting unrealistically low cost estimates and entering into conditional fee agreements that limit your control over the case.
A realistic estimate from an experienced litigation specialist may offer far better value than an attractive quote that continues to increase.

Selling your company does not necessarily mean your obligations to it have ended.
In this video, Christopher Burgon discusses the case involving Bruce Wishart, who sold his business for a headline consideration of £27.6 million but remained involved as a director and shareholder. Problems arose when he financially supported and made introductions to businesses competing with the company he had sold.
The court found that his conduct breached his continuing duties, while the purchaser also took action over loan notes forming part of the original sale consideration. The case is a warning for both buyers and sellers to understand the continuing obligations created by sale agreements, restrictive covenants and directorships.
If you have recently bought or sold a business and believe the terms of the sale or continuing director duties are being breached, book a free 30-minute meeting through the website, email Christopher Burgon Solicitors or give them a call.

A business partner who starts competing against the company may be breaching important legal duties.
In this video, Christopher Burgon explains how directors and senior people within a business may owe director or fiduciary duties that prevent them from acting against the company’s interests. Possible action can include removing them from the business, seeking an injunction to protect confidential information or intellectual property, and pursuing a claim for losses caused by their conduct.
If your business partner has started competing against you or using company information for another business, book a free 30-minute meeting through the website, contact the firm by email or give them a call.
