McCandlish Holton Attorney Successful in Corporate Dissolution Suit

McCandlish Holton Director Michael H. Gladstone successfully represented a Virginia business in a corporate dissolution suit involving 50/50 shareholders instituted in the Richmond Circuit Court by the client’s former business partner. Two businesses, a corporation and a LLC, were implicated by the allegations of the complaint but the suit only addressed the corporation.  Counterclaims were filed and competing  purchase elections were made by the parties under Va.
