Secure Your Legacy with Expert Wills & Estate Planning – McWilliams Hewitt Evans

When a company has multiple shareholders, there can be a lot of cooks in the kitchen. While these shareholders can provide pivotal funding and ideas to help companies grow, they can also bring complexities—like differing points of view and conflicts of interest. Shareholder agreements can help businesses avoid, or at least better navigate, some of these issues. Put simply, shareholder agreements are legal documents that clearly lay out the rights and responsibilities of shareholders to help prevent future issues. Shareholder agreements are meant to protect both the business and shareholders. But while they can simplify relationships, they also come with certain challenges and tax implications.
