TEAM / PARTNERSHIP DISPUTE

Teams have disputes.  Some disputes can be resolved easily. Others need a third party involved to help. And some disputes cause partners to conclude, like spouses in a marriage, to go their separate ways. 

How Eccleston Attorneys Can Help

Too often, branch office politics or incompetent managers dictate the result, and arrive at decisions or compromises that make little sense or are unfair. Attorneys at Eccleston Law work nationwide to assist financial advisors who have team / partnership disputes. Considerations may include:

Broker Transition
Employment Matters
Regulatory Matters
Strategic Consulting

Whether it is consulting behind the scenes, conferences or meetings with managers or partners, filing in-house grievance / mediation requests, or filing FINRA arbitration claims to seek a fair resolution, we guide financial advisors through this difficult time in their careers.
