Our process for business valuation assignments start with identifying the type of report required followed by meeting at the clients premises for information gathering and then analysis/report preparation. Our process for damage quantification matters starts with a scoping phase followed by information gathering/analysis and, if appropriate, expert report. Typically, we complete our assignments within 2-3 weeks after receipt of all necessary information.
