Divorce After 50 as a Business Owner, Executive or Professional
When you are facing divorce and you are over 50, you may be asking yourself, “How are my business and my life going to be impacted?”
You are considering some difficult questions:
- How long will I need to continue to work?
- How long will I need to pay maintenance/alimony to my spouse?
- Will my business or professional practice be affected? Does my business or professional practice have a value? Will my spouse get part of it? Will my business partners be affected?
- How do I value my executive compensation benefits? Do I have to divide stock options and deferred compensation with my spouse?
- What if I – or my spouse – received an inheritance from a parent? Those funds are separate property…or are they?
- What happens if I lose my job?
- Do I have to pay for life insurance for me? For my spouse?
- Do I get to keep my Social Security benefits?
- What if I get sick? Who is going to take care of me?
- What about my kids? Can I make sure my kids inherit my assets? How do we take care of our child with special needs?
- What will retirement look like? Will a surviving spouse receive any of my pension benefits?
- Do I have to pay my spouse’s legal fees?
