Common questions
- What is FPR Part 25 and why does it matter for divorce business valuations?
- FPR Part 25 governs expert evidence in family proceedings. Business valuation experts in financial remedy cases must comply with Part 25 duties, address personal versus business goodwill, and produce reports the Family Court can rely on for Form E and settlement negotiations.
- How do experts treat personal goodwill in matrimonial valuations?
- Experts distinguish personal goodwill tied to the spouse from transferable business goodwill. Personal goodwill may be less realisable on sale, which affects the value attributed to the matrimonial asset and any add-back or income arguments.
