Unfair Prejudice
Section 994 of the Companies Act 2006 (“CA06”) provides a route for a shareholder of a company to petition the court, should they have been unfairly prejudiced by another’s conduct. Rosenblatt has significant experience in acting for clients in relation to unfair prejudice petitions – both for petitioners themselves and those defending petitions brought against them. Whilst most unfair prejudice cases settle before reaching court, some do not, and Rosenblatt has experience of progressing cases from the pre-action stage, through negotiation and settlement, to trial and the assessment of costs.
