The hosts explore the real-world challenges spouses face when a business is on the table, why accurate valuation is critical, and how proper buyout agreements can safeguard long-term financial interests. They also highlight the risks of attempting to continue co-ownership after a divorce and what every divorcing business owner should consider before making a decision.
