Has Your Business Partner Broken Trust With You?
Fiduciary duty refers to the trust business and financial partners place in one another in all matters relating to financial interests and ownership rights. Partners and officers are accountable to other partners and shareholders for maintaining honest communication, open financial transactions and ethical standards. If one partner or investor breaks the law, every shareholder may be hurt. It's easy to understand why, in Texas, business partners have the highest level of fiduciary responsibility toward each other under the law.
If your business partner or co-investors have breached their fiduciary responsibilities, protect yourself. Talk to a business litigation attorney at Galow & Smith as soon as possible.
