Succession Planning for Farmers and Fishermen

Every owner of a successful farming or fishing business faces the challenge of providing for the effective transition of business and personal asset ownership. A successful transition requires that key areas such as management succession, transfer of voting control, transition of share ownership of the business and transition of personal asset ownership be considered in an integrated and tax efficient way. We help you address the "soft issues"⁴ that are integral to this process and then assist with the technical structuring once the appropriate foundation is laid. Ultimately, we strive to provide you with the peace of mind that comes from a fully integrated and effectively structured succession and estate plan.
