When a relationship ends, dividing common assets can be complex enough. But when a business is involved, it requires experienced knowledge beyond standard family law. Many law firms don’t have the accounting experience or deep knowledge needed to accurately value a business in property settlements.
At Bennett Carroll Solicitors, we have developed strong partnerships with experienced accountants and financial professionals, enabling us to precisely assess business values and protect your interests during family law disputes.

In disputes involving business assets, one party might undervalue the business while the other overstates it. The truth lies in detailed financial analysis and clear documentation—something we’ve honed through years of experience. We know the pitfalls to avoid and how to negotiate fair outcomes.
Business valuations must comply with relevant financial and taxation guidelines, such as those outlined by the Australian Taxation Office.
If you or your former partner own a business and are facing separation or divorce, experienced legal advice is essential to safeguard your future.
Beyond valuation, asset protection during relationships is vital. Binding Financial Agreements (BFAs) offer certainty and protection by outlining how assets, including businesses, will be managed or divided.
Our team advises on BFAs tailored to business owners, helping you avoid costly disputes later. Learn more about BFAs and common pitfalls in our dedicated article: Binding Financial Agreements in Queensland Family Law.
We serve clients throughout Queensland with offices in key South East Queensland locations, including Brisbane (Stafford, Upper Mount Gravatt & Brisbane Central), Gold Coast (Mermaid Beach), Sunshine Coast (Birtinya), and Ipswich.
To fit your busy schedule, consultations can be done remotely via phone, email, or video. No need to visit our office unless you want to — we can also come to you, providing convenience without compromising personalised service.
