I've represented many minority-interest owners in corporate matters. Not having a shareholder agreement is a hurdle and generally parties can contract as they see fit. It is an uphill battle, but you do have some rights that you might be able to use. You said that you verbally agreed on the initial ownership percentages. Is that documented anywhere? Are there minutes, emails, texts, or anything that create a record of the agreement for the initial percentages or of the verbal disucssions you had subsequent to that?
