I have had my business since 1988, my wife and I met in 1993, we got married in 2000 we had our first son in 1997 prior to marriage and a daughter in 1999 and our 3rd and last child in 2000.
So what is she entitled to: I'm pretty that things I had prior to our marriage should be mine.
I have a 5,000 square foot shop with 6 overhead cranes, 18' ceilings at my house on 8 acres.
So we have to figure what the house, property and buildings are worth as one unit.
I then need to find someone to evaluate what my tools are worth, 3/16" x 10' apron brake, 1/4" x 10' shear, several welders, pipe benders, Iron worker, 3 big welding tables, Rollers,Lathe, Grinders, pressure washer, saws, mag drills and 28 years of other tools.
So who is the best person to evaluate this, my first thought was a auctioneer because he actually knows the real time value of what its worth in its current condition.
I want to be fair, id rather work things out with my wife and her get the money verses fighting and the lawyers getting a big pay day.
Any advice from other shop owners who have been through a divorce would be greatly appreciated.
There is also business asset evaluation that they might look at, my attorney told me I will have about 6 years of alimony and of course child support.
We each have an attorney, but you guys our way cheaper to get advise from to take back to the attorneys and get the legal opinion.
