Determining the value of a privately held business is often one of the most paramount financial issues in a dispute. We provide business valuations prepared by an experienced CPA and credentialed business valuation professional. We typically work on behalf of one side in a dispute, but also can serve as a neutral business valuation expert.  Our team is experienced in providing valuation analysis in high stakes situations and is ready to defend our work before the opposition and the Court.
 
It is common  for parties to disagree over the true earnings capacity, and thus the value of a business.
