We prepare damage studies on behalf of a plaintiff or to rebut the plaintiff's damage claims on behalf of a defendant. Insurance claims and disputes constitute a large portion of damage studies. The damages may involve quantification of lost profits, revenues or cash flow, lost value of business goodwill or business interruption claims.
We assist the attorney in identifying the source and disposition of profits and assets, provide input and analysis for property settlements, or analyze the availability of funds for alimony or child support.
We assist the buyer or seller of a business in
analyzing financial data and assist in understanding the accounting and
tax implications of the proposed acquisition agreement.
| These engagements determine a value of the business for various objectives. |

Recapitalization of the Business A recapitalization plan, such as replacing equity with debt obligations, may help in restructuring the business.

Buy-Sell Agreements
The untimely departure of one of the principals of a client's business through death, disability, or voluntary/involuntary separation can lead to the demise of his enterprise before an orderly succession can be planned or enacted. To address these contingencies and avoid their resulting consequences, you may wish to enter into a buy-sell agreement with co-owners of their business. We can place a value, or provide workable valuation formulas for such an agreement.

General Business Planning
Business valuations can also be very beneficial when considering such matters as strategic planning, exploring financing alternatives or considering the sale of certain operations.
