Business

We have particular expertise in dealing with more complex cases where there is a business involved.

Over the past 20 years the way that the courts have dealt with businesses within the context of resolving financial issues has changed quite significantly. There is no longer an assumption that a business should not be sold because it generates income for the family. All the circumstances of the case will be looked into in detail including the value of the company, any liquidity, the income, any tax issues and the effect on the business of any transfer, sale or disposal.

We have an established network of experts including accountants, who we will work with on these cases to ensure that the business is valued correctly, and any relevant issues are identified early. As always, we will look to achieve a negotiated settlement for clients, on the best possible terms. Negotiating in these cases requires a full understanding of the complex issues and problems that businesses face.
