Among the most complex divorces are those involving corporate executives. This is because executives often receive compensation packages that depend on performance, or which provide long-term incentives. How are profit-sharing plans, stock options or golden parachutes assessed for value?
In a divorce, even these forms of compensation must be divided equitably between the spouses. Division requires a fair valuation, however – and that can get complicated.
Attorney Zachary D. Smith, an Ohio State Bar Association-certified family relations law specialist with nearly 20 years of experience, has handled many divorces involving executives compensation.
He recently published a free white paper explaining the issues surrounding the division of executive compensation during an Ohio divorce. It explores:
- Common types of executive compensation
- What Ohio’s courts take into consideration
- Some strategic considerations for executives and their spouses
