A Signature Practice of The Orr Law Group

Cooperative Business Splits

When a partnership has run its course, the choice is rarely whether to part — only how. We have built a single, structured discipline around that question: one firm representing every partner, a senior attorney mediating, and a resolution that holds.

§ 01 — Why we built this

Two lawyers. Two retainers. One scorched business.

The traditional model of partnership dissolution is adversarial by design — and it destroys the very value the partners came to divide.

Cooperative Business Splits is our answer. It is the only discipline in our firm where we will, with full informed consent of every partner, represent the partnership as a whole through a structured mediation toward a documented exit.

The result, in our experience, is a cleaner split, a fraction of the legal spend, and — often — a preserved professional relationship between the people leaving the table.

§ 02 — The Four Pillars

A method, not a negotiation.

01

Single Engagement

Both — or all — partners retain The Orr Law Group jointly. One firm, one record, one shared map of the dissolution.

02

Neutral Mediation

A senior attorney serves as neutral mediator. Sessions are private, structured, and on the record only when the parties agree.

03

Transparent Valuation

We coordinate independent valuation, tax review, and asset division — every figure visible to every party from day one.

04

Documented Resolution

We draft the buy-out, separation, or wind-down documents that turn the agreement into an enforceable, filed reality.

§ 03 — Engagement

From intake to filed resolution.

Phase I
Intake & Joint Engagement
Conflict waivers, scope letter, and shared document repository established within 72 hours.
Phase II
Discovery & Valuation
Books, contracts, IP, real estate, and goodwill catalogued. Independent valuation commissioned.
Phase III
Mediated Sessions
Three to six structured sessions. Each party speaks. Each option is costed. Decisions are written, not assumed.
Phase IV
Closing & Filing
Definitive agreements drafted, signed, and filed with the Secretary of State and the IRS where required.

Mediation sessions are 90 minutes, held at our Omaha office or by secure video. All partners must consent to attend; we will follow up to confirm conflict waivers before the session.

Submitting this request does not establish an attorney-client relationship. Joint representation requires written conflict waivers from every partner.
