How to Pass On a Family Business Without Creating a Family Feud
Description
A family business is often more than just an asset—it’s a legacy. But passing it on after the death of the owner can create big challenges, especially when some heirs want to keep it running and others want out. In this episode, we dig into the legal and practical issues of transferring ownership of a family business through an estate plan. We’ll look at common scenarios where one child is involved in the business while others are not, how to handle buyouts fairly, and how to avoid turning your business succession into a battleground. Spoiler alert: planning ahead is key.
Here’s some of what we discuss in this episode:
🤝 How to keep things fair when only one child is interested
🛑 The co-ownership risks that can tear families apart
💸 Why cash (or lack of it) complicates everything
🧠 The importance of setting expectations before there’s a problem
