Business Valuations

Determining value can be a difficult and somewhat subjective process. Clients rely upon the expertise of our valuation team to provide substantive research and documentation based upon tested valuation models and methods. Members of our team are certified public accountants that hold advanced credentials in valuation (ABV) from the American Association of Certified Public Accountants as well as the certified valuation analyst (CVA) designation from the National Association of Certified Valuation Analysts, in addition to other specialized designations.

Along with the training and education, our team has the practical experience. Experience is particularly critical when differing values are challenged and your team requires an expert to help mediate in or out of court.

Michael A. Gould, CPA/ABV, ASA, CVA
Director
Litigation and Valuation Services Group

"It is my sincere belief that our valuation and litigation support services must always be attentive to delivering three core promises to our clients. First, to be ethical in our approach--even when it requires presenting facts or settlement scenarios that our client might not want to hear. Second, to be as precise, thorough and knowledgeable in our practice as our natural abilities allow. Third, to be responsive and timely in our business, from returning phone calls to being available when and where we are needed. They sound like oversimplified promises, however, in today's world, these are the three biggest reasons why Hunter is winning business."
