How to implement a verbal agreement with a partner while he neglects it?
Q: Dear sir/madam, I have a free zone company based in Sharjah, holding 51% shares and acting as a director, manager, and shareholder/partner. My partner who is holding 49% shares of the company is on the company`s visa, as well as myself. When he bought the company shares from my previous partner, we had a verbal agreement that he will give cash to support the company, including paying for the renewal fees, etc, because I will be the only one running the company on daily basis. Now he is neglecting the agreement and always making excuses. The company renewal is due very soon. Am I protected on this case as it was only a verbal agreement (not a notarized agreement)? I do have WhatsApp messages that he agreed on giving some cash to the company (not in English though). What legal action can I take to push him to give the cash to support the company? Can I take him out of the company and what is the step to do so? Questions & Answers
