There are many cases where business partners disagree and then end up in court trying to settle their differences. The first question the judge will ask is if there was a written contract. If not then it makes it difficult to decide who is right or wrong in the matter.
In fact if there is a legal contract between the partners there is less chance of going to court because the parties to the agreement know their duties and responsibilities.
