Valuation Of Businesses For Divorce In Nebraska
When facing the complexities of divorce, the division of marital assets can be one of the most contentious and intricate aspects someone will need to navigate. For business owners, the valuation of a company is a critical component that demands careful consideration. At Higgins Law, we recognize that each business is unique, and the approach to valuing it must be tailored to the individual circumstances of your case.
Businesses, whether they are robust entities with significant operations or modest ventures born from after-hours work, can significantly impact the financial outcome of a divorce. From the carpenter with a side business building decks, the CPA preparing tax returns after hours, to the stay-at-home parent running a day care, the question remains: What is the true value of these businesses? At Higgins Law, we delve into the nuances of your situation to establish a fair valuation for marital property division.
Marital Property And Business Valuation Challenges
Divorce can complicate the perception and valuation of businesses developed during marriage. Often, such enterprises are considered marital property, yet there are exceptions to this rule. It is crucial to have dedicated divorce counsel from a lawyer who can discern these subtleties and advocate for your interests.
Consider these scenarios:
- A husband is employed as a house painter but also paints houses privately. Is his side job considered a business for property division purposes?
- A wife is a music professor who provides private instruction on the side. How is her business valued in the divorce proceedings?
- Your spouse owns a company outright. Will the court consider more than the income declared on tax returns, which you may have co-signed?
Our attorneys at Higgins Law are equipped with the knowledge and experience to address these questions. We work diligently to ensure that your rights to fair business asset division are upheld.
