Net Worth
At trial court’s conclusion that Frances’ contributions enabled Roger to participate in the development of the Behm Family Companies, she did not receive an equalization of her share when they divorced. This may be attributed to Roger signing personal guaranties on behalf of those entities for large debt amounts; additionally he invested substantial family savings into unprofitable businesses instead of placing great value on his 480-acre share of family land.
