Short Answer
For a partnership dispute consultation, gather the documents that answer four questions: who owns what, who controls what, where the money went, and what changed. Start with the operating or shareholder agreement, formation records, recent financials, bank access, tax returns, and the messages that show the dispute. Do not wait until every file is perfect. A short factual timeline and the best records you already have are more useful than a disorganized document dump. If you were locked out, bring proof of what you can no longer access.

When This Becomes Urgent
- A lawsuit, meeting, vote, capital call, buyout deadline, or closing is pending.
- Access to records is shrinking or you believe documents may disappear.
- Company money, customers, assets, or contracts are moving.
What Usually Goes Wrong
- Sending thousands of unlabeled files without identifying the documents that matter most.
- Editing, annotating, or forwarding records in ways that alter useful metadata.
- Leaving out communications that may be unhelpful to your position and surprise counsel later.
Why Miami Experience Matters
Miami business disputes often combine corporate records with leases, property entities, licensing, financing, and related companies. An experienced Miami litigator knows which records connect those layers. That lets the first meeting focus on leverage and urgency instead of spending the entire hour discovering that the valuable asset is owned by a different LLC or that the controlling document is a side letter signed at closing.
Local proof: Aaron Resnick's background
What to Have Ready
- Operating agreement, shareholder agreement, bylaws, amendments, and side letters.
- Articles, Sunbiz history, ownership ledger, cap table, and contribution proof.
- Three years of tax returns, financial statements, bank records, and distributions.
- Key contracts, leases, loans, guarantees, licenses, and insurance policies.
- A one page timeline plus the ten most important emails, texts, or letters.
What Typically Happens Next
The consultation begins with goals and urgency, then tests the documents against the other side's conduct. Counsel identifies missing records, immediate preservation steps, contractual procedures, and realistic paths such as negotiation, buyout, mediation, records litigation, injunction, or dissolution. A clean intake packet also makes conflicts review and early case assessment faster, while preserving attorney time for strategy rather than file sorting.
