German term or phrase: nach geschäftlichen Differenzen
Der neuerliche Skandal fällt zusammen mit einer Buchveröffentlichung, die schon für Aufregung gesorgt hatte. Gestern publizierte die Goldman-Familie das von Simpson verfasste Buch "If I did it" (Wenn ich es getan hätte), nachdem der frühere Sportstar nach geschäftlichen Differenzen die Rechte an dem Werk veräußert hatte. Die Goldmans gaben dem Buch einen neuen Untertitel: "Confessions of a killer" (Bekenntnisse eines Mörders).

agree  Sasha2: I think this is it - would just say "following business disputes" keeping it in the plural as in the original.

following money problems or due to financial difficulties


Explanation:
I know it is a real stretch, but didn't the man sell the rights because he needed money?
I believe the other translations are correct translations of the German, but do they fit the context? Do they mean anything?
Just a shot.
