Introduction

As stocks increasingly become a major asset of investors and corporate M&As often involve more than one company acquiring or merging with more than one target, the interests of minority shareholders are becoming more important and shareholders enter into shareholders’ agreements more frequently than before. As the company is primarily in charge of keeping custody of the shareholders’ list, which is the basis for exercising shareholder’s rights, there are increasing disputes regarding the ownership of shares, exercise of shareholder’s rights and responding measures related thereto. Work related to resolving such disputes are different from typical civil procedures in terms of how such disputes develop and in terms of legal principles applied thereto, which means that extensive knowledge and practical experience are required. Only professionals highly skilled in such matter are able to handle ongoing court proceedings often complicated by constantly changing facts which is the characteristic of such disputes. Yulchon’s Shareholder Litigation Team provides optimal solutions to clients by enabling them to prepare for legal dispute over the ownership of shares and exercise of shareholder’s rights, and by providing advice and conducting lawsuits effectively if such dispute arises.
