Hi Welcome to ValuationPodcast.com - A podcast and video series about all things related to business and valuation. My name is Melissa Gragg, and I provide online divorce mediation and valuation services based in St. Louis Missouri.

Today we will discuss Preserving a Family Business When the Owners Divorce with Robert - Bob Boyd, a divorce lawyer in Atlanta. Bob is a co-founder of Boyd Collar Nolen Tuggle & Roddenbery and a leader in family law who has received recognition from his colleagues across Georgia and the nation for his work in high-net-worth divorce litigation and contested custody cases.

What are some of your first recommendations to the business owner on how to move forward in divorce?
What do you typically see happen when two people own a business together and get divorced in the state of Georgia?
Do you suggest a business valuation in all cases?
What if the business was a separate asset at the beginning of the marriage – how do you deal with separate property in Georgia?
What are some suggestions you may have for a business owner who wants to get “prepared” for divorce?
What happens if a business owner seeks to lower revenue for the business or increase expenses to make the value lower during the divorce process?
