When a dispute arises between partners, it can negatively impact the reputation and career of the partners involved, as well as having a detrimental effect on the business itself.

At Rothera Bray we act swiftly to deal with partnership disputes in order to settle the matter early, and regularly use negotiation, mediation and arbitration as efficient and low cost methods for resolving disputes.

We have vast experience of working with partnerships and individual partners in various sectors and professions and have a deep understanding of the regulatory and commercial frameworks that partnerships operate in.
