Divorce & entrepreneur

The impact of a divorce on a business can be significant. This requires specific and specialised assistance. These cases do not only involve family law, but also corporate, tax, and financial aspects.

Related questions are:

  • Should business assets be divided, or settled in divorce and, if so, at what value?
  • What to do with pension entitlements?
  • How will the maintenance sum be established?
  • Is only the salary of the director-major shareholder normative, or also withdrawals through the current account and/or dividend payments?
  • How much liquidity can be released from the business for maintenance?
  • Are the company’s financial statements different in the year of the divorce when compared to other years?

A multidisciplinary approach is usually recommended here.

We work in close cooperation with auditors, tax specialists, and pension experts. Where necessary, we will consult with you about involving these experts in your divorce procedure. It is important to recognise all the different aspects so that clear agreements can be made and recorded. We are happy to assist you in these matters too.

Because of its multidisciplinary aspects, the collaborative divorce is very suitable for a divorce from an entrepreneur.
