When Your Marriage Ends, Your Future Begins

Dividing agricultural assets in a Lincoln divorce requires specialized experience due to the unique nature of these holdings. Simple formulas don't always apply. Factors we consider include:

• Valuation: We utilize experienced agricultural appraisers to determine fair market value, considering factors like soil quality, crop yields, water rights, and recent sales of comparable properties. This process goes beyond standard real estate appraisal, taking into account the complexities of agricultural operations.
• Seasonal income: We carefully analyze income streams, considering seasonal variations and long-term projections for profitability. This ensures a fair division based on the actual economic value of the asset.
• Land use restrictions: We assess any zoning regulations, conservation easements, or other restrictions that may affect the property's value and potential future use.
• Tax implications: We collaborate with tax professionals to minimize tax liabilities related to the asset division. Understanding the tax implications is crucial for achieving the most beneficial outcome for you.
• Operational assets: We account for all operational assets, including equipment, livestock, and other resources essential to running the agricultural business.

We work closely with agricultural experts and tax specialists to ensure a fair and equitable division of agricultural assets that protects your interests.
