Our corporate litigators work closely with our corporate and employment teams to ensure that our clients receive a service that is appropriate to the situation and their needs. We understand that dealing with corporate disputes requires sensitive handling so we are as ready to mediate or arbitrate as we are to litigate.
At Clyde & Co, all our litigators are experts at the dispute resolution process and handle company-related issues on a day-to-day basis. Our work for clients spreads across all industries and covers domestic and international markets.
Emotions can run high in company-related disputes. We understand that a calm, analytical approach, focusing on practical legal points and the best commercial interests of our clients is what is required from us. So often, success in court after prolonged litigation suits no-one. Our aim is always to assist our clients to deal with problems quickly so they can concentrate on the business that matters.

- Companies Act issues such as s.459 petitions and ‘unfair prejudice’, minority shareholder issues
- Boardroom disputes among directors or senior executives including allegations of breach of duty by directors
- Shareholder disputes either among shareholders or against companies’ senior management
- M&A litigation – problems arising during or post acquisitions
