At LexGeorgia Law Firm, we provide professional legal assistance in shareholder dispute resolution in Georgia. As an experienced law firm in Tbilisi, we represent both local and international shareholders in complex corporate conflicts. Our goal is to protect ownership rights, ensure fair corporate governance, and resolve disputes efficiently through negotiation, mediation, or court proceedings.

Shareholder disputes are a common issue in companies operating in Georgia, especially in LLCs, joint ventures, investment projects, and family-owned businesses. These conflicts may arise due to disagreement over company management, profit distribution, minority shareholder oppression, breach of shareholder agreements, or illegal actions of directors.

Our legal team provides full-cycle support in shareholder dispute resolution, including legal analysis of corporate structure, review of shareholder agreements, identification of violations, negotiation between parties, and representation in Georgian courts and arbitration.

We focus on protecting both majority and minority shareholders. Minority shareholders often face exclusion from decision-making, lack of access to company information, or unfair dilution of shares. Majority shareholders may face obstruction of management decisions or abusive claims from minority partners. We ensure balanced and lawful resolution of such conflicts.

• Breach of shareholder agreements
• Mismanagement of company funds or assets
• Removal or appointment of directors
• Share transfer and valuation disputes

Our Approach to Shareholder Dispute Resolution

At LexGeorgia Law Firm, we apply a structured and strategic approach:

We start with detailed legal assessment of the corporate documents and factual situation. We identify legal risks and strengths of each party. We then prioritize out-of-court settlement through negotiation or mediation, as it is often faster and more cost-effective.

If settlement is not possible, we proceed with litigation in Georgian courts or arbitration proceedings. Our litigation team prepares full legal strategy, evidence collection, witness preparation, and court representation.

We also assist clients in urgent protective measures, such as freezing shares, blocking unlawful corporate decisions, or challenging illegal registrations in public registry.
