Valdez Washington’s practice includes claims by shareholders and partners in complex, high-stakes litigation that arises internally within privately held businesses.  On the plaintiff’s side, the Firm’s clients have included minority shareholders (both individuals and groups) and limited partners who assert claims against majority owners for minority oppression and breach of fiduciary duty.  On the defense side, the Firm also represents and protects the rights of majority and controlling shareholders, corporate officers, directors and managers, and general partners against claims by those holding minority interests and in the context of “business divorces.”
