    TT Ep 146 - A Fair Split: How Healthcare Practices are Valued in Divorce

    In most divorce cases, one of the biggest challenges is determining how assets should be divided. When one or both spouses have ownership stake in a healthcare practice, the process becomes even more complex. Enter the divorce valuation: this determines the worth of the practice and identifies the portion eligible for division, supporting a fair and defensible outcome in court. In this episode, Christy and NDP’s Head of Valuation Dawn Whitehurst discuss how these valuations work, when they’re necessary, and the distinction between divorce and standard business valuations.
