Michigan city scape in grey
Marko Law Firm

What actions by majority shareholders may qualify as shareholder oppression?

Common examples of conduct that may qualify as oppression under Michigan law include:

  • Cutting off salary, distributions, or benefits to the minority shareholder
  • Freezing the minority owner out of management or decision-making
  • Diverting company profits for personal use
  • Manipulating company finances to devalue the minority interest
  • Using company control to force a cheap buyout

Oppression is evaluated based on the effect of the conduct, not just the excuse given for it.
