JT welcomes you to another episode of The Deal Board Podcast. This week, JT is joined by Kelly Lise Murray to unpack what happens when divorce intersects with business ownership. With decades of experience in family law and wealth disputes, Kelly explains why valuation in a divorce is rarely straightforward and often depends on the quality and balance of evidence presented. The conversation explores how courts approach business value differently from the open market, why relying on incomplete or one-sided information can shape outcomes, and how legal strategy, timing, and documentation all play a critical role. JT and Kelly also discuss the risks of letting disputes drag on, the cost of litigation versus early agreement, and why selling the business can sometimes provide the clearest path forward. They close with practical advice for business owners facing divorce, from cleaning up financials to treating the process like a business transaction. Tune in to learn how to protect value and navigate one of the most complex scenarios a business owner can face!

Listed by Marty Fishman of Transworld Business Advisors, the business generated strong interest, with hundreds of NDAs and multiple offers. An initial deal with a private equity buyer fell through during extended due diligence after attempts to renegotiate. After returning to market, the seller found the right fit in an independent buyer whose full-price offer aligned with expectations. Following another intensive due diligence and SBA process, the deal closed successfully, supported by a strong buyer-seller relationship and the seller's commitment to a smooth transition.
