‍The Challenge

The three shareholders entered into a shareholder dispute, which also included litigation directed toward members of the Board of Directors. The plaintiff made a claim that would have required a material redistribution of voting power (control) along with a large financial payment related to damages. Plaintiff and plaintiff’s counsel hired a valuation expert to provide a report supporting the claim.

The Solution

Defendants’ counsel engaged Wilcox Investment Bankers to act as consulting expert and to provide a comprehensive report estimating Fair Market Value related to certain equity ownership consistent with the approach established for shareholder disputes.

Primarily Delaware and Oklahoma state corporate law and valuation procedures.  We also provided a detailed critique and rebuttal report in response to the plaintiff’s expert report and provided related deposition and testimony.
