Disputes involving privately held businesses often raise valuation questions about ownership interests, company value, damages, solvency or intangible assets. Brookline Valuation Services, Inc. provides independent business valuation and litigation support to attorneys, businesses and other clients involved in valuation matters.

Each engagement begins by defining the question to be addressed, the valuation date, standard of value, interest being valued and intended use. Our work may include an independent valuation, analysis of a prior appraisal, review of financial and transaction evidence, or other valuation consulting tailored to the issues in dispute.

Litigation Valuation Services

• Valuation of closely held businesses and ownership interests
• Shareholder, partner and other ownership disputes
• Analysis of solvency, going-concern value and intangible assets
• Review of valuation methods, assumptions and conclusions in another report
• Expert witness and consulting support, including reports, deposition and trial testimony when retained

We work with counsel to understand the relevant facts, identify the valuation issues and explain the methods and assumptions used. Reports are prepared to make the analysis clear to the intended users and to support the opinions expressed. The scope and conclusions depend on the evidence and requirements of each matter.

Mark Shifrin, ASA, has focused on business valuation since 2007 and brings more than 25 years of valuation experience. Clients work directly with Mark throughout the engagement.
