Phoenix Minority Shareholders Law Firm

Minority Shareholders

By definition, a minority shareholder is an equity holder within a firm or company who does not have voting control and who has less than 50% ownership of the firm’s equity capital.  Due to the fact that many companies are comprised of several individuals who own shares, the majority of shareholders fall into the minority category.

Usually, minority shareholder conflicts arise for two reasons.  First, the minority shareholder may be concerned about what will happen to his/her investment if the company falters or is sold.  Due to the fact that minority shareholders have no voting power, they have little control over the company’s finances.  This means that they are taking great risks whenever they make investments.  Second, majority shareholders may have concerns about minority shareholders and what they should do to appease the minority should the company have drastic financial and/or operational changes.  In both cases, shareholders may find the need to work with a lawyer who has extensive securities and investment arbitration experience, like Attorney Shockman.
