VALUATION ISSUES

There may be a business or real estate valuation issue involved in a divorce. Our firm maintains exclusive working relationships with the most highly respected evaluators so that we may assist you in achieving the best possible results.

You and your spouse own a business together and both of you brought your best to this venture, growing it into an enterprise worth a considerable sum. Or maybe you used your shared income to buy property, as well as making other sound investments together. Now with divorce or separation looming, deciding the value what asset will become unavoidable, as well as a source of tension. The fear of losing years of investment funds and time can be daunting.

There are many errors one can make with this, and these mistakes can cost you dearly. Determining value is difficult simply because the courts in California do not accept “market value” or other estimate. A professional and trusted third party is required to help determine the exact value that will be acceptable before a judge, and choosing a trustworthy one may be difficult. It is a guaranteed that your spouse will be doing the same during the pendency of the divorce.

With our pooled resources we can ensure that you will get the worth for the time and money you put into your assets.
