“Nasty divorces can mean trouble for business
Divorce is often the kiss of death for a business.”
"Sit down with any experienced family law trial lawyer and you'll hear war stories of courtroom shootouts where warring families ended up destroying the very wealth they were trying to divide," says Kevin Fuller, a partner with Koons, Fuller, Vanden Eykel & Robertson PC. "Air your assets in open court and, if your spouse doesn't get you, your competitors will. They'll pick every bit of meat off the business bone."
But there's a smarter way, he says. Embattled couples can settle marital disputes out of court through collaborative law and save the business from collateral damage.
"It's about getting the business through the divorce without destroying it or the owner," says Fuller, who is also president of the Collaborative Law Institute of Texas. "It's a benefit to the spouse because you don't kill the goose that's laying the golden eggs – even if you're mad at the goose."
