My partner and I disagree on what the business is worth. What now?

We provide an independent valuation with normalized earnings and documented add-backs that both sides can use, then restructure the buy-sell agreement valuation clause so the disagreement does not recur on the next transition.

I earn income in both New York and Connecticut. How is that allocated?

Income sourced across New York and Connecticut has to be allocated correctly, and both states audit residency and allocation aggressively. We review your sourcing, manage the allocation and the credit for taxes paid to another state, and confirm every position against current guidance.

A representative engagement

The shape of the work, close to Rye and Harrison.

Valuation6 weeks to report; settled within 90 days.

A professional services firm in Purchase with two partners

Situation: The two founding partners disagreed on the value of the business and the buy-sell agreement had no current valuation clause.
What we found: Prior valuations had used a rule of thumb with no normalization. Owner compensation was well below market, inflating apparent profit and the disagreement with it.
What we did: We performed a full income-approach valuation with normalized earnings and documented add-backs, then restructured the buy-sell agreement valuation clause so the dispute could not recur.
Result: The partners settled on an agreed value within 90 days using one report both sides accepted, and the new clause governs future transitions.

Rates and thresholds are confirmed against current state guidance before they touch a return.

Rye and Harrison businesses file NYS returns and Westchester combined sales tax where applicable [verify current rate]. Employers in the corridor face MCTD mobility tax exposure [verify current rate and threshold], and professional services firms navigate the NYS pass-through entity tax election. Residency and allocation questions are significant here for owners with income sourced across New York and Connecticut, and both states audit aggressively. Equity compensation and outside business interests for executives add another layer. We review all of this in the diagnostic and confirm every rate against current guidance.
