Succession in Family Businesses
The succession in family-controlled and family-owned businesses and shareholdings raises complex estate planning issues. The owner will not only need to consider family interests but, in addition and just as important, the interests of the company and its employees when planning his/her succession. Of high importance is a smooth transition from present ownership and possibly management to the new owner(s) and managers. We take care to ensure that all facets of this complex process are addressed, including tax planning and asset protection issues.
