Strategic Attorney Protection Of U.S. Shareholders’ Rights

Shareholders are essential to corporate governance, and their rights are protected under state and federal laws. These rights promote transparency, accountability and fair treatment in corporate decision-making.

Attorney Richard A. Maniskas founded RM LAW to advocate for shareholders and investors nationwide. Based in Berwyn, Pennsylvania, he offers strategic representation, personalized service and unwavering commitment to protecting American shareholders.

Understanding Your Rights As A Shareholder

Shareholder rights are legal entitlements allowing individuals to influence corporate governance and protect their investments. They are grounded in securities law and corporate statutes, and vary depending on the type of shareholder and the corporation’s structure.

Common shareholder rights:

  • The right to vote on major corporate matters, such as mergers, acquisitions and board elections.
  • The right to inspect corporate records and financial statements.
  • The right to receive dividends when declared by the board.
  • The right to bring derivative actions against directors or officers for misconduct.
  • The right to transfer or sell shares, subject to any restrictions in shareholder agreements.

If your shareholder rights have been violated, attorney Maniskas can guide you toward a favorable resolution.

Common Disputes Among Shareholders

Shareholder disputes often arise from breakdowns in communication, mismanagement or unequal treatment among owners. These conflicts can jeopardize the value of shareholder investments and the stability of the business.

Frequent sources of shareholder disputes include:

  • Breach of fiduciary duty by directors or majority shareholders
  • Misuse or misappropriation of corporate assets
  • Disagreements over business direction, compensation or dividend policies
  • Denial of access to financial records or voting rights
  • Oppression of minority shareholders in closely held corporations

When left unresolved, these disputes can threaten shareholders’ legal rights and the long-term health of the company.
