When a spouse owns a business, New York courts must first determine whether the business qualifies as marital property under Domestic Relations Law § 236, then apply recognized financial methods to determine its value before dividing it equitably. Determining whether a business is marital property and how much it is worth can significantly impact the overall financial outcome of a divorce.

Grey divorce generally refers to the dissolution of a marriage involving spouses age 50 or older. National research shows that the grey-divorce rate doubled from 1990 to 2010 and then largely leveled off, but divorce among older adults remains a significant issue. In Manhattan and throughout New York, these cases often involve decades of shared assets, intertwined retirement accounts, and detailed property arrangements that require careful legal attention.
