Description

Abstract: A buy-sell agreement should be a critical part of an individual’s estate plan if he or she has an interest in a business that’s closely held or family owned. The agreement provides for the disposition of each owner’s interest after a “triggering event,” such as death, disability, divorce, termination of employment or withdrawal from the business. This article explains how a properly drafted buy-sell agreement can help address a variety of issues business owners and their families may face when a triggering event occurs.
