Protecting the Business
You Built.
Divorce shouldn't trigger a liquidation event. We use advanced tax strategies—like the Butterfly Spin-Off—to divide assets without destroying your company's value.
Download the Valuation MatrixFounder's Insight: "Most generalist lawyers look at the 'Line 150' income. We look deeper. Whether it's imputing income for support or fighting a puffed-up business valuation, we treat your divorce like a corporate transaction." — Deepa Tailor, Managing Director.
The Valuation Trap
How your business is valued can make or break your financial future. Understand the difference.
The Risk
"The Asset Approach"
Scenario: Opposing counsel values your company based on a theoretical sale of all assets.
Result: An inflated value that forces you to overpay equalization.
This approach ignores market reality and cash flow constraints.
The Strategy
"The Income Approach"
Scenario: We value the business based on its actual cash flow and redundant assets.
Result: A realistic number that keeps your equity intact.
This approach reflects true business value and operational reality.
