Protecting Your Business During A Divorce

Protecting Your Business During A Divorce

Divorce can be a difficult time, and while many presume correctly that the main concern is children, on many occasions, there are other important issues such as business interests.

 

In situations where one or both spouses own a company, it may be your marriage’s most valuable asset, so it pays to identify a law firm with a successful track record in combining divorce with company and commercial law as they can advise on the best interests of your business as well as your personal and family life.

 

The company is not exempt from divorce proceedings, even if one partner has nothing to do with the day-to-day activities, and for a limited company in particular where a husband and wife or civil partners are involved, having the positions documented correctly can make a huge difference in how the assets are distributed.

 

Ultimately, if handled incorrectly, your divorce may not only result in the loss of your marriage but your company too so it is vital to seek the advice of a law firm that can offer both matrimonial and commercial law services.

 

At Peter Lynn and Partners Solicitors, our divorce team regularly deals with complex, high-value divorce cases and as a leading commercial practice, we have a team of corporate law specialists on hand that most other divorce and family law solicitors do not.
