Minority Shareholder Action

On a Thursday I discovered I was a minority shareholder about to be washed out of a ten year investment by a merger valued in the tens of millions of dollars. I thought I needed a litigator. A friend knew I needed Scott Wagner. My friend was right. I spoke with Scott that afternoon. Friday Scott and ...his team took the case. They worked the weekend to file an action the following Monday morning in another state, on behalf of all the affected shareholders. The Hale Wagner team provided strong representation in court and in negotiations that lead to a fair and final settlement. Throughout the process I was impressed with the way Scott and his team communicated with me. If you think you need a litigator, you need Scott Wagner.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
