Terri Krivosha and Susan Markey to Present CLEs for Seminar on Ownership Disputes in Closely Held Businesses

Terri Krivosha, a partner in Maslon's Corporate & Securities Group, and Susan Markey, partner and chair of the group, will each present March 6 at the Minnesota CLE in-person seminar Ownership Disputes in Closely Held Businesses: Preventing, Managing, and Resolving. Terri also serves as co-chair of the course.

Terri and Susan team up for "Preventing Member Conflicts Under Chapter 322C: Drafting Challenges," in which they and Mitchell Hamline law professor Daniel Kleinberger discuss how transactional attorneys can help business owners plan for and prevent future disputes on the front end under Chapter 322C.

In addition, Terri presents "Negotiating Resolutions to Ownership Disputes Like a Pro to Avoid Litigation." In this session, she describes how to identify the questions your client is not asking (but should be) in a shareholder dispute, best practices for negotiating difficult issues, and how to identify themes in shareholder disputes that will help resolve the matter without litigation.
