Family Law - Property Division: Business Valuation

Determining a Business’s Value at the Time of Divorce
If you or your spouse is a business owner, the value of that business at the time of the separation is critical. Too often we see cases where the business-owning party, knowing a divorce is imminent, runs down the business to bring its value down and prevent the other party from obtaining as much in the divorce settlement as they would have if the business had been maintained.

Working with Forensic Experts
The forensic accountants we employ look at the financial history of businesses related to a divorce, closely examining the value of the business starting five years prior to the divorce. These specialists know what to look for, what red flags may come up, and will question a sudden or significant drop in value.

Our firm works with forensic accountants to gather accurate information regarding you or your spouse’s business as well as other significant assets associated with high net-worth individuals to make sure that property division is conducted accurately and fairly.
