Shareholder Agreements and Member Agreements

Shareholder Agreements and Member Agreements

Let Our Attorneys Help You Write Your Shareholder Agreement

When you bring shareholders into a financial arrangement for a business, you are putting your corporate life on the line. Shareholder agreements should be clear and leave no room for questions or interpretation when disputes arise — as they nearly always do.

Kerr & Hendershot has more than 20 years of experience helping corporations, partnerships and investors draft, revise and review shareholder and member agreements that stand up in court. Our attorneys are experienced business transaction and litigation attorneys in Texas. We are ready to use our knowledge and understanding of court rulings and business law to help you protect your rights and interests as your business expands and takes in additional investors and partners.

Contact our offices in Houston or Corpus Christi, Texas, to discuss your needs with one of our business transaction lawyers. We are available at our Corpus Christi law office only by appointment.

We will discuss:

  • What you want your corporate entity or partnership to look like?
  • How involved will your shareholders be in daily operations?
  • What options do you have for eliminating undesirable shareholders?
  • What provisions should be in place to prevent shareholder oppression?
  • How do you deal with buy-outs and shareholder dissolution?
  • How do non-compete agreements and trade secrets affect your agreement?
  • What protections are needed to accomplish your business goals?

We Protect Your Bottom Line

We know that cost always makes a difference. That's why we work efficiently to provide services that are cost-effective and focused on what you need. Senior partners at our law firm personally review every bill for fees and services to ensure that you understand what you are paying for and where your hard-earned dollars are going.

Contact us to arrange a consultation with one of our business transaction lawyers. Let us give you the confidence that your shareholder agreement is airtight and satisfactory to your business partners and investors.
