Strong corporate governance is critical to the success and integrity of any organisation, but disputes can arise that threaten stability and compliance. At Foye Legal, we specialise in resolving corporate governance disputes, from director liability issues to conflicts over board decisions. Our tailored legal solutions help businesses across NSW to address these challenges effectively, ensuring compliance and protecting the interests of stakeholders.
Directors and officers have a duty to act in the best interests of the company and its stakeholders. When allegations of misconduct, negligence, or breaches of duty arise, the consequences can be significant. Foye Legal provides robust advice and representation to defend against claims or pursue accountability for breaches of these obligations.
Corporate governance standards establish the framework for ethical and legal decision-making within a company. Breaches, such as failure to disclose conflicts of interest or non-compliance with company policies, can damage trust and lead to legal action. We help businesses address these issues while ensuring adherence to governance standards.
Disagreements over board decisions, such as strategy, financial management, or leadership changes, can create division within an organisation. Foye Legal provides impartial advice to navigate these disputes and protect the company’s best interests while fostering collaboration among stakeholders.
Derivative actions allow shareholders to bring legal proceedings on behalf of a company against directors or officers for breaches of duty. These cases require careful navigation of procedural requirements and legal strategies.
Foye Legal represents companies and shareholders in derivative actions, ensuring fair outcomes and compliance with the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth).
Foye Legal combines legal expertise with a deep understanding of corporate governance principles to provide clear and practical solutions. Our approach prioritises resolving disputes efficiently, preserving organisational integrity, and protecting the interests of stakeholders.

Directors must act in good faith, exercise due care and diligence, avoid conflicts of interest, and act in the best interests of the company. Breaches of these duties can result in legal liability.
A derivative action is a legal proceeding initiated by a shareholder on behalf of the company against directors or officers for breaches of duty. It is used when the company itself fails to take action.
A breach can include failure to disclose conflicts of interest, non-compliance with company policies, or acting outside the scope of authority. These breaches undermine trust and accountability within the organisation.
Disputes can be resolved through mediation, arbitration, or legal proceedings. Foye Legal provides strategic advice to navigate these disputes while prioritising the company’s best interests.
Directors found liable may face civil penalties, disqualification, or personal liability for damages. In severe cases involving fraud or negligence, criminal charges may also apply.
