FAQ: Business Succession

What's an estate freeze?+

An estate freeze locks in the current value of your business for tax purposes and shifts future growth to your children or a family trust — reducing the tax hit on your death.

Do I need a shareholder agreement if my business has only family shareholders?+

Yes. Family relationships change. A shareholder agreement governs what happens on death, divorce, disability, or disagreement — far better to negotiate it now than during a crisis.
