Business & Divorce

Are you an entrepreneur or are you going to divorce an entrepreneur? The 'entrepreneurial divorce' requires sound knowledge and experience. A divorce involving a company is often extra complicated and can have major financial consequences. For example, the (value of) the company may have to be shared in whole or in part in the context of the divorce. There may also be alimony and/or the pension rights built up in the company must be shared. In that case, you need a lawyer who is specialized in this area and can therefore also read annual accounts and work with concepts such as dividend, current account and cash flows.

Expert guidance

Since the value of a business is often difficult to determine and discussions can arise about the income that must be taken into account when determining maintenance, expert guidance is essential. In addition, when there is a business, there are often also prenuptial agreements. The formulation and interpretation of such prenuptial agreements can often lead to discussions, in particular about the question of whether and to what extent the business must be settled in the context of the divorce. There is a lot of legal literature and case law on this subject. The lawyers and mediators of the business & divorce section are aware of the latest state of affairs.
