Running a business has its ups and downs. Disputes are bound to arise from time to time.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn any business, even though the people running it are partners, and perhaps friends, anything can and does happen. While they may agree on the day-to-day running of their venture, they may not agree on the smaller details that make up the larger picture. Most businesses would do well to have mediation and conflict resolution options to help them solve such disputes when they do happen,\u201d said Ty Gomez, a Dallas employment and business lawyer<\/a>.<\/p>\n Sometimes, a dispute starts with something seemingly innocuous that someone else may take the wrong way. Some of the more common reasons for workplace disagreements involve discrimination \u2013 which may come in the guise of age, disability, marital status, race or sex \u2013 a difference of opinion over payment or one\u2019s salary, misunderstandings about maternity leave or even an unfair dismissal.<\/p>\n
