Protecting your legacy

Succession Planning

If you are the owner of a family business, you face a different set of future-based questions than those who are employees.
Succession Planning

A family business can be a joy, but making transitions and decisions is a complex process that involves both finances and emotions. Important decisions need to be made and discussions need to take place, but people are often uncomfortable discussing topics such as succession, aging, and death. Even financial situations can be uncomfortable when family relationships are involved.

Lisi, Liberati & Stockwell, LLC understands the discomfort of discussing the future of a family business, but we also know that it is an important step that must be prioritized in order to make sure that a business survives, or disposed of, depending on the circumstances. Statistically speaking, 70 percent of family businesses do not succeed once it passes from the founding generation to the next, and this is often the result of lack of planning. Having a succession plan in place is good business sense, and is the best way to ensure that a family business will survive the transition from one generation to the next with a minimum of discord and with an asset-preserving strategy for managing tax issues.

Our Newtown, CT succession planning service includes devising strategies that minimize the tax burden that will be faced in transitioning your family business. When ownership is transferred, we will help you find a way to minimize the tax impact.

Succession planning requires special attention to unique details and we will be able to provide you with traditional financial services, including retirement projections, tax projections, business restructuring plans and business valuations.
