Even a simple divorce is a complex financial transaction involving important business and financial issues, such as:
- What is included as income in a child support or spousal support case?
- Do bonuses, capital gains, or equity compensation (such as restricted stock and stock options) count as income or marital property or both?
- Are budgetary expenses considered in child support and alimony cases?
- How can cash flow be maintained during the separation period?
- Who is responsible for paying debts?
- If the spouses are co-owners, who controls the business during separation?
- Is property or a business worth the price it can be sold for?
- Do professional practices, such as medical practices or accounting practices, have any value apart from the skills and reptuation of the professional?
- Should business owners receive special consideration for making extraordinary efforts toward the success of the business?
- How does a court decide what percentage each spouse should get?
