Understanding Business Succession and Inheritance Disputes

When the owner or key executive of a family business passes away, their intentions may not always be clear. Some heirs may want to continue the business, while others prefer to sell. These disagreements can lead to inheritance disputes that test family relationships and financial stability alike.

Common reasons for business succession disputes include:

• Confusion over ownership or control
• Missing or unclear succession plans
• Questions about the value of the business
• Conflicts between family and nonfamily partners
• Allegations of concealment of assets or inheritance enforcement

Our probate lawyers work to uncover your loved one’s true intentions and ensure their wishes are honored under Ohio law.
