Partnership Control and Fiduciary Duties
Many people do not recognize that partnerships are much like a marriage, with the same fiduciary duties that spouses have toward each other. Thus, those in control must honestly account for income and expenses and not take advantage of minority partners not involved in the day to day operation of a business or real estate project. Strict procedures must be followed to dissolve a Colorado partnership and to resolve disputes with a troublesome partner. This is part of our commercial litigation practice.
