Google co-founder Sergey Brin filed for divorce from his wife Nicole Shanahan, the founder and CEO of the integrated patent management platform called ClearAccessIP, in January 2022. Brin mentioned "irreconcilable differences" as the reason behind the decision. According to court documents, the ex couple's shares will be divided equally among them. Additionally,
“All issues as to the property rights or obligations of the parties will be determined by confidential binding arbitration in accordance with a written agreement between the parties.”
Brin has requested their daughter’s joint custody. However, neither side will be asking for spousal support. The former couple has also brought in a private temporary judge for the case, in a bid to not reveal the proceedings of the verdict.
Sergey’s attorney said that the petitioner is Google’s co-founder and considering their high-profile relationship, people would be interested to know about their dissolution and child custody issues. Brin’s attorney added that this type of publicity will also put their child at risk of danger, harassment, or kidnapping if the pair’s daily activities are revealed to everyone.
