Litigation & Disputes

How We Support Dispute Matters

Disputes often require translating complex facts into rigorous, explainable analyses. We focus on clean logic, transparent inputs, and documentation that supports expert review and testimony preparation.

Common Engagement Types

• Business valuation disputes: shareholder matters, partnership disputes, and valuation provisions.
• Economic damages: lost profits, lost business value, and related economic analyses.
• Transaction disputes: working capital, earnout, or purchase agreement-related issues.
• Marital dissolution: business interest valuations and related analyses.
• Intellectual property and contract matters: economic assessments where valuation methodologies apply.

Core Analytical Components

• Issue framing: align to legal questions, measurement dates, and applicable definitions.
• Fact development: identify key drivers and assess the reliability of inputs and records.
• Valuation approaches: income, market, and asset approaches, reconciled into defensible conclusions.
• Damages frameworks: but-for scenarios, incremental profit models, and causation-aligned constructs.
• Sensitivity and rebuttal readiness: identify pressure points and evaluate alternative assumptions.

Information We Often Request

• Financial statements and general ledger detail
• Budgets, forecasts, and management decks
• Customer, contract, and pricing detail (where relevant)
• Transaction documents and communications (as applicable)
• Industry and market data, including comparable companies and transactions

Deliverables

• Expert report support: analysis, schedules, and documentation
• Deposition and testimony preparation support
• Critiques of opposing expert analyses and alternative scenarios
• Clear exhibits designed for presentation and explanation

Our Perspective

In dispute matters, clarity wins. We prioritize transparent assumptions, clean math, and narratives that are consistent with the underlying economic reality of the business and the relevant facts.
