Litigation frequently arises when a merger or acquisition is aborted or does not turn out the way the parties expected. Whether the claims originate in breaches of the merger or acquisition documents or in common-law claims such as breach of fiduciary duty by the managers involved, KMK stands ready to advise and represent parties involved in an M&A dispute.
Some of the critical evaluations that must occur right away include: the extent to which the entity involved is required or prohibited from indemnifying the individual decision-makers (e.g., directors, officers, managers, partners), whether separate representation is required for the company and the individuals, and whether injunctive relief is warranted before events spin too far out of control. KMK stands ready to provide experienced guidance in such time-sensitive situations. Contact KMK to learn more.
