For many families, a family-owned business can provide the primary source of income. Whether structured as an S-Corp or a C-Corp, whether the business is owned by shares of stock or wholly individually, every business has a value. Even if one spouse was responsible for the development of the business or is the main rainmaker in the business while the other stayed at home or was otherwise employed, the value of the business is usually a marital asset subject to division by the court in the case of…
