Succession Planning and AccountingBookkeeping Firms in Port St. Lucie, FL

Succession Planning Services

If you own a family business, retirement isn't simply a matter of deciding not to go into the office anymore. You've got some critical questions to answer like...

"What happens to the business when you're no longer running it?"
"Will you have enough money to retire?"

The family dynamic complicates the whole transition because of the relationships and emotions involved. Most people are not comfortable discussing topics such as aging, death, and financial affairs.

Comfortable or not, succession planning should be a priority for any family business considering that more than seven out of ten family-owned businesses fail to survive the transition from founder to second generation, typically falling prey either to estate taxes or family discord - or both.

Developing and implementing a well-designed succession plan with a Port St. Lucie is essential to the survival of a family business from one generation to the next.

A Port St. Lucie tax accountant can help you with these key issues -

  • Keeping it in the family. Are you going to pass the business on to your family or sell it to a third party? We help you weigh the advantages and disadvantages of each of these options.
  • Who's going to run the business when you're gone? Management and ownership are not one and the same. You may decide to transfer management of your business to just one of your children but transfer equal shares of business ownership to all your children, whether they're actively involved in the business or not.
  • Minimizing the tax bite. The tax burden when transitioning a family business can be significant. The challenge is that a family business is not generally a liquid asset, but taxes are typically due when ownership is transferred.
  • Making it fair. Transferring family ownership often adds a tremendous amount of stress to individual family members. We talk with each of the family members to ensure that they feel they a getting an equitable and fair share of the pie.

What we do for you...

  • Once we understand how you feel about the key issues above, we begin constructing your succession plan focusing on these 5 issues...
  • Business Valuation
  • Business Restructuring
  • Tax Consequences
  • Retirement Projections
  • Tax Projections

It was such a relief to have someone so knowledgeable and efficient on my side. I highly recommend William and the team at Paramount — I’ll definitely be back next year!

  • Natalie Clark
    We decided to go through a professional service this time for our taxes and we are super glad we chose Paramount! Joseph was great and easy to work with! He not only helped us with our 2024 taxes, but he went back through our 2022 and 2023 taxes for an amended return. If it wasn't for Joseph working through our 2022 and 2023 taxes, we would have lost out on all of our energy tax credits! Not to mention, they offer very reasonable rates for their service! Thank you again! See you next year!
