Minority Shareholder Interest / Oppression

Shareholder Oppression is Far Too Common

Even though the majority shareholders tend to have control over a company, that control is not necessarily absolute. Whether by law or by contract, minority shareholders have certain legal protections that cannot be trampled by the majority shareholders or the corporation's executive - officers, directors. Minority shareholder oppression remedies exist to address such situation, such that all parties need to be aware of their responsibilities in such circumstances and how they should appropriately deal with changes in those circumstances.
