Divorcing Dentists
Divorce is a difficult process for anyone to endure and unfortunately, the rate of divorce amongst dentists is high due to various factors including challenges in managing the dental practice, while running the business in a competitive market.
Divorcing dentists require legal advice from a divorce lawyer with experience in dental practices. If you are a dentist and own your dental practice, the value of your dental practice and its income is relevant to the issues of equalization and support during your divorce process.
Unlike most other professional practices such as a law practice, dental practices are regularly bought, improved, and sold. Companies such as Tier Three Brokerage, appraise dental practices. The separation date is the focus point for the valuation of your dental practice. In other words, the value of your dental practice will be determined as of the date of separation. Upon separation, it will be necessary to equalize your assets with your spouse, including your dental practice, bank, and investment accounts (registered retirement savings plans, non-registered accounts, etc.) and real property.
You may sell your practice and equalize the net sale proceeds of sale or keep your practice and pay your spouse 50% of the value of the practice. You can retain an expert accountant to value your dental practice for equalization purposes. You may also retain an expert accountant to value your income from your dental practice for spousal or child support purposes.
