A buy sell arrangement is a binding agreement between business co-owners that governs what happens to a departing owner's stake, typically triggered by death, disability, retirement, or voluntary exit. These arrangements establish a predetermined price and mechanism for transferring ownership, which removes uncertainty and prevents unwanted third parties from acquiring control. Without a buy sell arrangement in place, disputes over valuation, forced sales, and family or creditor claims can paralyze operations and destroy shareholder value. This article examines the core structures, valuation methods, funding mechanisms, procedural safeguards, and strategic considerations that make buy sell arrangements essential tools for protecting corporate ownership transitions.

A civil action in New York is commenced by filing, not by service (CPLR 304), and the plaintiff then has 120 days to serve (CPLR 306-b). That window and the limitations period are the two failures that actually end a case. Limitations: three years for personal injury (CPLR 214), six for contract (CPLR 213(2)), two and a half years for medical malpractice (CPLR 214-a), one year for intentional torts (CPLR 215). Claims against a city, county, or school district run on a far shorter track — a notice of claim within 90 days, and suit within one year and 90 days (General Municipal Law §§ 50-e, 50-i). One drafting rule runs against instinct: in a personal injury or wrongful death action, CPLR 3017(c) prohibits stating the damages amount in the complaint. The defendant may demand a supplemental statement, and the plaintiff answers that within fifteen days.Most other defects are curable. CPLR 2001 lets the court correct or disregard a mistake that causes no prejudice, and CPLR 3025 permits amendment — so "strict compliance or dismissal" overstates the risk in both directions.

A digital transformation case typically arises when a corporation disputes the scope, cost, or outcome of a technology modernization project, often involving breach of contract, professional negligence, or performance warranty claims against vendors, consultants, or internal teams. Success in these disputes depends on the claimant's ability to establish baseline performance metrics, document deviation from contractual specifications, and prove causation between the transformation failure and quantifiable business harm. Courts examine whether the parties' obligations were clearly defined, whether deliverables met acceptance criteria, and what evidence exists in project records, communications, and system logs. This article covers the procedural mechanics of digital transformation litigation, key defense angles, evidence preservation requirements, and the practical steps corporations should take before and during litigation to protect their position.

A financial fraud lawyer defends clients against securities fraud, embezzlement, and tax fraud charges, navigating criminal penalties and civil liability under New York law. Under New York Penal Law, financial fraud convictions can carry felony-level sentences, substantial fines, and mandatory restitution orders. What many people don't realize is that criminal and civil proceedings often run simultaneously, which means the decisions made in the earliest stages of a case can affect both outcomes. A financial fraud lawyer evaluates the evidence, identifies procedural vulnerabilities, and coordinates defense strategy across both tracks from the start.
