Complex Business Valuations

Businesses are treated like any other asset in a divorce. Because of this, it is critical to ensure that your business is properly valuated if you are going through a divorce. Even when a business is considered to be the separate property of one spouse, any increase in the business value during the marriage could still be subject to equitable distribution in Minnesota.

What’s Equitable Distribution?

Equitable distribution is the distribution of property and debt obligations used by courts when dividing marital property during divorce proceedings. Equitable distribution does not necessarily mean equal division, but rather, fair division. Therefore, we find it extremely important to properly value your business and the impact on your family.
