My primary sources of income are my home business, driving for Uber, and giving guidance to people on how to make money from on demand jobs. I would like to consolidate all of that into a legal business, partially for tax purposes, and put the business into a trust. I also want to make everything business related the property of the business. My main concern is the divorce I am going through right now. Since my wife left I have found another partner and the business we have was her idea. She also manages the business by herself with little help from me as I am busy with other endeavors. I would like to form a legal business out of what she does and place that business in a trust so that my previous partner cannot take what my current partner has worked so hard to build.
Because you are still married, everything you earn is presumed to be community property and subject to a just and right division. You should try to get a divorce as soon as possible. There is no effective way to "protect" the community estate at this point. You should get an attorney as soon as you can to sort out everything and help you make decisions as you move forward. What county are you in?
