Business Succession Planning in Estates
A privately owned business or with only a few shareholders require business succession plans to ensure that the value of what has been created is paid to the surviving spouse, to other family members, or a retiring shareholder or member. We recognize that each enterprise is unique, and our experienced planners have many options available to ease the burden of the business transfer to those clients who will continue to run the enterprise. These are just a few of the tools we use to solve these business succession issues:
- New classes of corporate stock or LLC membership interests
- Setting up family owned Corporations, Partnerships, or LLCs
- Buy-sell agreements, between owners and/or children and spouses
- Gifting ownership interests in business entities to spouses or children, and avoiding unnecessary taxation
- Life, disability, and key man insurances
A “Business Divorce” is always messy and expensive. Our well-seasoned staff offers solutions to minimize the disruption of these events when they occur.
