ABA presents: Avoiding and Dealing with LLC Deadlocks

Peter Mahler will be a speaker at the upcoming ABA Teleconference on November 21, 2016.

Details of the event are as follows: Businesses are overwhelmingly choosing to create limited liability companies in lieu of corporations. More specifically, LLCs routinely consist of two members or an even amount of members. In representing these types of entities or its members, it is important to carefully draft the terms of operating agreement which would avoid a deadlock in the event of a dispute. Absent proper drafting, these entities may be forced to spend a significant amount of money in judicially forced dissolution proceedings. This program would first address the drafting of an operating agreement which would diminish the need for litigation in the event of a dispute. However, if there is a dispute amongst the members requiring the commencement of a dissolution proceeding, the second part of this program would focus on the practicalities of bringing and defending this type of a proceeding or exploring alternate dispute resolutions.
