Buying out a Business Partner?

[luv]

What kind of business (LLP, LLC, etc?). Is there an operating agreement with buyout provisions? Before any buyout, I would definitely value the business, assets, etc. She shouldn't be able to get any more out of it than what she can prove she put into it. Sounds like you need a good attorney as well. These types of transactions are part of the types of things that my attorney handles (checking for loopholes, legalities, drawing up contracts and agreements, etc.).
