Litigation & Expert Testimony

Because of the reputation of the firm and its members, WVA is regularly called upon to provide valuation consulting to clients involved in various stages of legal dispute. These services often lead to expert testimony in such matters as shareholder and partner disputes, marital dissolution, bankruptcy proceedings, tax disputes, and other civil litigation. WVA’s objectivity, understanding of the litigation environment, and thorough preparation leads to defensible opinions.

WVA adds value by working with clients and their advisors on matters of strategy pertaining to valuation, preparation for presentation of conclusions, and cross examination of opposing experts.

WVA’s substantial transaction experience and resulting knowledge of how companies are valued in the “real world” lends a level of credibility to its expert opinions that most litigation specialists can’t claim.
