According to the
Small Business Administration, about 90 percent of American businesses are family-owned or controlled. For many of these families, the business is the most significant asset – it comprises the majority of the family’s wealth – and yet is often given little consideration in estate planning. Attorneys who counsel business owners (or their family members) in virtually any capacity should be aware of the importance of valuing the business. Business valuations for the purposes of estate planning (or gifting programs) are useful in many situations, from determining value so that ownership interests can be established to tax minimization strategies to protection from potential IRS conflicts.
