Private Wealth Counsel
When a high-net-worth marriage ends, the outcome of a dissolution — or the durability of a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement — turns entirely on how well the attorneys understand the business behind it. We built this practice precisely for that intersection: attorneys who know businesses, how ownership is structured, and how to protect what a client has built.
That fluency shapes every dimension of our work: how we draft agreements that withstand challenge, how we approach valuation disputes in dissolution, and how we structure protections that preserve operational continuity when a marriage ends. We bring the art of legal and business into the family law context — and apply it where it matters most.
Counsel Calibrated for Complexity
Whether drafting a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement or representing a founder, investor, executive, or business owner in a dissolution matter, each situation requires attorneys who understand what they are protecting. We address equity structures, unvested interests, business succession planning, and professional goodwill not as abstract terms, but as the specific assets our clients have spent years building. Every agreement we draft is designed from the outset to survive challenge — because we understand the business well enough to anticipate exactly where a challenge will come.
- We understand that for our clients, what is at stake is the work of a lifetime. We treat it accordingly — with the rigor and discipline that protecting a business, structuring an enforceable agreement, or navigating a complex dissolution genuinely demands:
- Detailed review of every business-related financial document before any strategic position is taken or communicated to any party.
- Individualized analysis of your specific corporate structure, equity arrangements, and compensation history — never templated assumptions applied to your unique situation.
- Specialized attention to income characterization, including K-1s, distributions, retained earnings, and personal expenses run through business entities that artificially suppress reported income.
- Proactive identification of goodwill characterization issues — personal versus enterprise — before the opposition has had the opportunity to define the terms of the debate in their favor.
- Direct, candid communication about legal exposure, strategic options, and realistic outcomes — without the reassurances that serve the attorney's comfort rather than the client's interest.

How do I protect my personal assets from business risk?
Operating through an appropriately formed LLC or corporation can help separate business liabilities from personal assets, although the protection is not absolute. Keep personal and business finances separate, maintain suitable insurance and follow required business formalities. Florida law may also protect certain personal assets, depending on your circumstances. https://www.tclgfirm.com/blog/asset-protection-for-small-business-owners This is general information about Florida law, not legal advice, and it does not predict or guarantee any outcome.
Can I be personally liable for my company’s debts or lawsuits?
Usually, an LLC or corporation helps shield owners from company debts and lawsuits, but there are exceptions. Personal guarantees, certain wrongful acts or circumstances that justify piercing the corporate veil can create personal liability. Keeping business finances separate and following proper corporate procedures can help reduce the risk. https://www.tclgfirm.com/practice-areas/business-law/risk-management This is general information about Florida law, not legal advice, and it does not predict or guarantee any outcome.
How do I pass my business to my family without a fight in Florida?
A buy-sell or succession agreement that says who can own the company, how the interest is valued, and what happens at death or divorce is what prevents the fight. A will alone does not decide how co-owners must treat a new family member. https://www.tclgfirm.com/blog/family-business-ownership This is general information about Florida law, not legal advice, and it does not predict or guarantee any outcome.
