What are director disputes?
Director disputes occur when disagreements arise between company directors, or when allegations are made that a director has failed in their duties. Common issues include:
- Disagreements over company strategy and management
- Breaches of fiduciary duty (e.g. conflicts of interest, misuse of company assets)
- Unlawful dividend payments or financial mismanagement
- Removal of directors under the Companies Act 2006
- Allegations of misconduct or negligence
Such disputes can threaten both the company’s reputation and its financial wellbeing, so early legal advice is crucial.
