I'm breaking up with a client this week, they've been verbally abusive to our team. Advice on how to handle the call? Any way to keep things positive so they don't trashtalk us in the industry?

Not sure what you mean by keep things positive. If they've been verbally abusive, they probably won't react well but nothing you can do. Just hope your firm's reputation is strong and outweighs any trashtalking they may do.

What do you mean when you say they've been abusive? If that's true, your managers should be involved in ending the relationship with the client's leadership.

My client wants both parties to list assets & liabilities as an exhibit to their prenup without values, but waive the right to know the actual valuation of those in the prenup itself. My initial thought is this is a terrible idea & would probably make the prenup easily voidable since a main requirement for a prenup is for both to understand the nature and value of the other’s assets. I will research in my jurisdiction to confirm, but has anyone ever heard of/done this? Thoughts?
