Legal Question in Business Law in New Jersey

Re: Breach of contract business partnership

I see from your zip code that you are at the other end of New Jersey from me, and I can not help you.

I know a very good, very smart lawyer not too far from you. Gary Marek, Esq. out of Mount Laurel.

You need a good lawyer. You need to figure out whether you can go after this unpleasant guy, and how to go about it.

What you are describing is pretty repugnant.

Let my secretary know you found me through LawGuru.

Disclaimer: Your question and any response does NOT create an attorney-client relationship between you and this law firm.

Re: Breach of contract business partnership

You have a major issue with your partner and need to seek the advice of an attorney quickly. There appear to be significant breaches of obligation to the the business as a whole and self interest dealing. You need to consult with an attorney quickly.

Keep in mind that this advice is given based on the little bit of information that you have provided in your question. My advice may change based on other information. Further, no one can rely on advice from an attorney who has not been retained. You cannot rely on this advice because we have not personally met and you have not retained me as an attorney. If you have not already done so, you should immediately meet with an attorney for a full consultation before you take any further steps. You may feel free to call me to discuss this matter in more detail. If you do so, mention Law Guru and your first one hour of time will be free. Good luck! Rob Gleaner

Re: Breach of contract business partnership

You say there is a standard operating agreement, but do refer to it in your facts. What does it provide for resolution of business disputes between the parners? If the agreement is silent on these matters, retain a good local business attorney and sue for an accounting and to assert your parnership interest. Be mindful that this type of litigation can be both costly and time consuming - so you have a business decision to make, whether the cost is justified by the potential result if you are successful.
