The Complicated Art of Succession Planning with Frettens Solicitors’ Matthew Fretten #90

Nothing can test a family bond quite like being in business together, a gauntlet run by the two generations who’ve helmed Frettens Solicitors.

Matthew Fretten is a Managing Partner whose path saw him join his father’s firm (the manner of which is a point of contention between the pair…), and the business’ journey has been far from simply smooth sailing.

Resilience is a quality shared by so many family businesses, and as you’ll hear on this fascinating episode of It Runs In The Family, Frettens is no exception.

This episode covers:

• Frettens’ inception, based on simple values
• The weight of taking on what a previous generation has built
• The complicated reality of retiring from a family business
• Why open communication and understanding different perspectives is vital for succession planning
