The term 'business will' describes a legal document giving clear and detailed instructions to beneficiaries on what the business owner wants to happen to the business upon their death. This can range from a planned sale to a transfer to a co-owner or family member.
For sole traders and small business owners in Sheffield, having this plan in place protects staff, clients and family alike.
