While the main focus for parties, and their advisers, in negotiating a property settlement or binding financial agreement, is on how the assets should be split between spouses, the tax implications must not be overlooked. In this program, Patrick Ellwood, from Clover Law in Queensland, highlights the income tax, CGT, and stamp duty implications of a property split, including the special tax issues affecting companies and trusts, and how they can and should be taken into account in drafting orders or financial agreements.
