About Buying out a business partner
Joe, who reads what UK advisers publish about partner buyouts and the rules a buyout runs into, and answers every enquiry this site takes himself.
Why this site exists
We read 27 providers' own pages on 28 October 2026 and only 3 print a fee, so the only way to see the spread is to read all of them and show the working. Next to it sit the rules every partner buyout meets: the buyback route, the tax on the leaver and the deadlines.
Who it is for
Anyone about to buy this service who wants to know what it costs before they ask, and who would rather see the published prices than a range somebody made up.
What is on this site
One question, "buying out a business partner", answered with a quote form that works on the page with no account, 3 guides on the questions around it, a data table you can cite (the figures and their method), and the sources every figure rests on.

- Who publishes a price, and who makes you ask: 3 of 27 providers read for buying out a business partner publish a figure. These are the ones that do not.
- Business partner buyout calculator: the figures that decide the price: Working out a business partner buyout: the share's value, the tax on the leaver at 18% BADR or 18% and 24% CGT, 0.5% duty on shares and the company buyback rules.
What it does not do
- No ranking, no best-of list and no scores: the table is sorted by the figure, not by us.
- No paid placement, no affiliate links and no sponsored rows.
- No invented figure: a provider that publishes nothing is listed as publishing nothing.
