BUY-SELL AGREEMENTS “BEING UNPREPARED FOR SUCH EVENTS AS PREMATURE DEATH, DISABILITY, OR INCAPACITY COULD ERASE ALL THAT YOU HAVE WORKED A LIFETIME FOR...” you and other professionals to ensure both your current and future needs have been addressed in the agreement. A buy-sell agreement can also address other important issues arising from events such as divorce, disability, critical illness, retirement or withdrawal, or bankruptcy. Whether you have a small, medium or large business, it is imperative that you have a buy-sell agreement in place. I would be happy to review your current situation, help you get an agreement set up, and assist you in putting the proper funding in place. Business is not only about success but also about succession and a proper buy-sell agreement will give you peace of mind knowing things will always be taken care of when the unexpected happens. + BY: KIRK STOYLES, CLU, DIRECTOR, CAL LEGROW FINANCIAL Kirk Stoyles is a director at Cal LeGrow Financial who graduated with a business degree from Memorial University of Newfoundland in 2002.
