What Corporate Litigation Services Does Brodsky Law Offer?
Corporate litigation involves disputes that arise within the corporate structure — between shareholders, directors, officers, and the corporation itself. These disputes can threaten the stability and viability of a business, and they often involve complex issues of fiduciary duty, corporate governance, and statutory compliance. Whether you are a shareholder seeking to hold directors accountable for mismanagement, a corporation defending against a derivative action, or a minority owner seeking protection of your investment, corporate litigation requires an attorney who understands both the legal framework and the business dynamics at play. Sasha Brodsky has represented corporations and their stakeholders in corporate litigation in Santa Cruz and throughout California since 1998.
California's Corporations Code provides the statutory framework for most corporate litigation matters. Shareholder derivative actions — brought on behalf of the corporation under Corporations Code Section 800 — require shareholders to meet specific procedural prerequisites, including demand on the board or a showing that demand would be futile. Involuntary dissolution under Corporations Code Section 1800 is available when those in control of a corporation engage in persistent fraud, mismanagement, or abuse of authority. Directors and officers owe fiduciary duties of care and loyalty to the corporation and its shareholders, and breach of these duties can give rise to significant personal liability. Shareholders also have statutory rights to inspect corporate books and records under Corporations Code Section 1601, and denial of these rights can be addressed through court action. Sasha works to protect his clients' corporate interests through strategic, informed litigation.
Sasha's scope of counsel includes but is not limited to:
Whether you are pursuing or defending against a shareholder derivative action, seeking involuntary dissolution of a deadlocked corporation, asserting director or officer liability claims, or enforcing your right to inspect corporate books and records, Sasha provides experienced litigation counsel through every stage of the process — from pre-litigation evaluation and demand through discovery, motion practice, trial, and appeal. He works to protect the interests of corporations and their stakeholders.
