What Happens When I’ve Made Substantial Contributions To My Spouse’s Self-Employment?

It’s an age old question in divorce: How can my contributions to my spouse’s career be calculated and compensated?

Whether you worked while your spouse went to school or stayed home to raise kids while your spouse climbed the corporate ladder, developing a fair financial settlement at the end of a marriage is important for your well being now and in the future.

When you’ve made substantial financial contributions to a spouse’s business, you may not have received shares or stock or other elements of ownership.

When you’re in a situation where the spouse’s business is successful and the marriage is ending, you are entitled to compensation for your investments.

The attorneys at Friedman & Ranzenhofer structure financial settlements that reflect the sacrifices and support they provided during the marriage.
