Legal Question in Family Law in California

Re: Husband & Wife business owner

Since it does not sound that the sale of the business is tied to a legal separation or divorce petition, my recommendation is that you both see a lawyer for counsel. If business began during marriage, it is community property in California and funds from sale are community property. Call to discuss 800-685-6950

Re: Husband & Wife business owner

you have a community property interest in this business, either defined legally by a perreira or van camp formula the courts use. if you can tell me more about the business, if its labor intensive per se and if you two were married at the time of its inception, i can further assist you legally in this matter. feel free to email today with your contact information for a free case evaluation/consultation regarding all of your rights.

If the business was started during the marriage, there is a rebutable presumption that it is community property. Without knowing more about your particular situation, I can not be more specific. I do offer complimentary telephone appointmnets to discuss issues like yours.

It is always better to consult with an experienced family law lawyer on these issues. Experience is not expensive, it's priceless!
