Expert Legal Counsel for Business Disputes in Wyoming
Vickery & Shepherd focuses heavily on personal injury cases, but it also has extensive experience assisting clients with significant business disputes that they are unable to resolve. Wyoming actively attracts businesses to establish and operate within the state, resulting in frequent litigation of business disputes. Wyoming has specialized courts for business disputes, known as the Chancery Court, in addition to the general expertise of the state and federal courts.
Business disputes in Wyoming can be significant enough to warrant a lawyer’s involvement. For example, we recently represented a client who had made a seven-figure investment in a company but was unable to obtain sufficient information about the investment from the sponsor. We filed a lawsuit in Chancery Court and successfully obtained the necessary information about the investment.
In another case, we presented arguments before the Wyoming Supreme Court, where individuals associated with a corporation were held personally responsible for the misconduct of others within the corporation. We are currently awaiting a decision in this case. We are optimistic that our clients will ultimately obtain relief and that Wyoming will continue recognizing the protection provided by adequately formed and funded business organizations.
We are also involved in an appeal where family members have been unable to resolve their differences regarding ranch land to be conveyed into a family trust. The Wyoming Supreme Court will address these issues.
