Protecting one’s real estate and investments are critical issues for most entrepreneurs and franchise owners.  Generally, a husband or wife is involved as a w2 employee while another spouse manages the day to day operations of the franchise.  Having experienced professional legal advice on asset protection issues are critical to business owners and franchise owners.  One bad business decision may affect a lifetime of hard work.  Most husbands and wives make the mistake of both wanting to own the family business which is a big mistake.  By operation of Illinois law, a husband and wife automatically own the family business.  Thus, placing both husband and wife’s name on the franchise or business creates an additional liability concern.  It is best to have a safe spouse who typically has the w2 job to remain off the company.  A substitute for business ownership could be placing a husband or wife as a manager instead of an owner.  A manager and owner have the same roles and duties.  A manager can work at the franchise or business without liability concerns, unlike an owner or member or shareholder.
