Starting up a new venture - advice please
Hi, To cut a long story short - I've been employed in the print trade since leaving school but for personal reasons I decided to have a total change of direction, after much deliberation I finally plucked up the courage, sold the shares in the company I'd built up and just finished a hand over... -

Company Director with kids and an Ex - help please!
I don't think it would make any difference how much I was paying to be honest - if I paid her what the average footballer at Man City was on - she'd soon want more!- peedoff

Perfect H8mmer, that's just the kind of advice I was after, I'm not trying to cover anything up or be deceitful, if/when it happens then I just want to be armed with the information in order to give the right answers and what to / not to say to them. I'm going to stick to my side of the bargain...- peedoff

Hi BrilloPad, I've taken advice from solicitors but they said that it's always going to be difficult, I'd have to drag the kids into it, they'd have to sit in court and be interviewed etc etc, then after all that there's nothing to stop her from denying access because they're 'going out' or...- peedoff

I saw it too, it was an article in the Daily Mail about 3 months ago. However I'm a believer in what goes around comes around, I'm not as bad as that guy, he just seemed to flaunt the rules, I just want to do the right thing and have a good life.- peedoff

So basically I'm screwed, I can't see my kids and my ex gets to do what she likes? That sounds unfair but I guess it's just what I've got to get used to! Cheers anyway.- peedoff

I'd love to have more input and have responsibility for my children, but it's difficult when she changes their names, fails to tell me when they are ill (even though I've been paying for private health care), stops me from seeing them, never passes messages on, talks to me like I'm muck, fails...- peedoff

So are you saying that my wife's and my dividends have to be proven to be earned? OK, she does very little other than do some filing and a bit of paperwork, but do I have to justify paying her by keeping logs of her work, times, have a clocking in card?!! To be honest the company is just a...- peedoff

Hi Sockmuppet - that's my preferred option, stop paying and let her chase me, it could take ages to sort everything out, that would give her some sleepless nights rather than me, but seriously, what's the worst thing that could happen - they start doing some digging, find that I have a company...- peedoff

That means he must be taking home in excess of £104000 p.a. - after tax, I can't understand that if he's not, are you sure you don't mean £400 per month?- peedoff

Everything is in order - believe me! Accountants have been involved in the company from the off, my wife is a legitimate director, as so she gets a dividend to reflect her share value, which is just less than 50%. My ex has no knowledge what so ever that I have sold the shares in my previous...- peedoff

I've tried a solicitor, cost me £400 for advice about getting access to my kids but admitted it probably won't work, the courts can't do much if the mother refuses to play ball, she's stopped me seeing the kids and has made their lives a misery if they do come, long story but I'd love to have...- peedoff

Hi, to cut a long story short I'm after advice from anyone who's a Director of a Ltd Company and has experience of either the CSA or an ex that's being difficult. I've always worked hard, never missed a days work, never sponged etc. I've recently sold the shares in my business and have now...- peedoff
