Divorce for Business Owners | Marla Keenan-Rivero Family Law Attorney & Mediator (707) 525-8800

The distribution of marital assets during a divorce is rarely a simple process, even for spouses who have very little marital property.  When you own an interest in a company, professional practice or any other business, divorce and support determination can create unique challenges which require the experience and skill of an experienced lawyer. In addition to being a business owner herself, Mrs. Keenan-Rivero has successfully guided many business owners through the divorce process, valuation of their business interests, and determination of support orders.

Mrs. Keenan-Rivero is familiar with all aspects of business and divorce. Her experience and skills allow her to identify the business valuation date and valuation method that are most advantages to her clients. She also will look closely to identify separate and community property when the business was started before the marriage and appreciated significantly during the marriage.

Mrs. Keenan-Rivero understands that in addition to managing the family law matter it is important to protect the business. Discovery demands and personal relationships can significantly impact a business during divorce.

Often business owners prefer the mediation process rather than litigation.  Settling your divorce in mediation rather than before a judge can keep financial and private aspects of your business confidential.   Mrs. Keenan-Rivero is a skilled and persuasive advocate and can help you protect your business interests while obtaining a favorable and equitable divorce through litigation or mediation. 

Attorney Marla Keenan-Rivero is certified by the California State Bar as a Family Law Specialist.  She handles divorce matters for business owners in all of Sonoma County.
