A company’s survival depends upon a knowledgeable and capable owner, executive or shareholder at the helm. In the event of a key member’s sudden death, illness, or retirement, businesses are often left scrambling to recover lost assets and find a replacement. Large corporations and small businesses alike can avoid a tumultuous transition by creating a comprehensive succession plan with the expertise provided by our knowledgeable attorneys.
Our firm has years of experience in business and estate planning allowing us to aid owners and shareholders in making a plan to ensure a smooth transition. Our properly drafted succession plans provide the remaining members of the company with a procedure to follow in case the unexpected happens. Planning can designate a competent successor to guide the business through a transition if necessary while reassuring employees about their job security, and putting safeguards in place to protect the company from loss or possible dissolution. We would also recommend making arrangements for pensions or retirement funds transferring the owner’s or executive’s interest into trusts to be paid out to their family members, again, working together with our clients’ accountants to ensure proper documenting and reporting.
