Primed for Sale: How to Know When It's Time to Sell the Family Business

In many cases, it makes more sense to sell a family business instead of passing it to the next generation to operate. During nearly five decades of practicing law, Bob Abdo has advised numerous family businesses. One thing he’s learned: “No two families are the same.” Abdo, executive vice president of Minneapolis-based law firm Lommen Abdo, says family dynamics can be mind-bendingly complex, and not every business owner wants to pass their company on to the next generation—nor does that generation necessarily want to take it.

Biological Father Recognized as a Legal Parent of Child Placed for Adoption Without His Consent

After two and a half years of litigation, a biological father has been recognized as a legal parent of his child who was placed for adoption without his consent, according to a recent Minnesota Supreme Court decision. Although the father did not register with the Father’s Adoption Registry within 30 days of the child’s birth, he had executed a Recognition of Parentage (ROP) with the mother, started a paternity action, and obtained a temporary restraining order prohibiting the adoption, all before the adoption petition was filed. The mother attempted to revoke the ROP after the temporary restraining order was granted, but the Supreme Court held that the revocation was ineffective.
