Independent business valuations are conducted by neutral third parties with no interest in the final outcome. We use several robust methodologies to determine the fair market value of an asset, which means if the valuation is challenged we can defend it easily in court—and will happily do so.
Our business valuations are always performed by highly-trained business valuation specialists. We have a team of ex-lawyers and big 4 consultants who ensure each valuation is robust and holds up to scrutiny.
Our independent business valuations typically cost between $2000 and $10,000, but complex cases can be significantly more expensive. To help you understand this question further, we’ve written a blog post on the topic here—but please don’t hesitate to reach out to us for a detailed quote.
Our independent business valuation services typically take 10 days. However, when needed, we can do it in as little as one day but an expedited timeline does come at a higher cost.
