He didn't. Paul McCartney sued to dissolve The Beatles' business partnership, concerned that Allen Klein's management would damage them over time. (He wasn't happy about it, saying later "I felt like an arse, suing my best mates and being seen to sue my best mates.") At the time, the other Beatles were sold on Klein, and rejected McCartney's choice of manager, his new father-in-law Lee Eastman.
Lennon, Harrison and Starr later soured on Klein, and the two sides sued each other, settling in 1977 with a payment to Klein of about £3.5 million. In the end, the other Beatles were thankful to McCartney, for "saving their legacy".
