For Extremely Complex Valuations
If you are in a lawsuit involving a contested divorce, tax court, or other litigation, or you are the owner of a large and sophisticated operation with multiple profit centers and locations, then a firm which specializes in valuations is the best source for you. Firms such as Bannister Financial, Inc. in Charlotte, NC or the big four accounting firms have extensive experience in complex cases and frequently serve as expert witnesses in court. Most have a national practice with a highly trained staff of valuation experts. These firms are really good in completing difficult valuations, and they are also expensive. If your need is determining a sales price for your company, then these firms are usually not the way to go.
