The Valuation and Transaction Disputes practice is a group of accountants and financial analysts that use their forensic accounting and data analytics skills to help resolve the most complex disputes in US history. Each project is a collaborative combination of team members who focus not only on complex problem solving but promoting a supportive environment full of challenging tasks and learning opportunities.
Most projects begin with a blank slate after which the team designs creative and efficient approaches depending upon the specific facts and circumstances. In all cases, team members are encouraged to combine their academic skills and outside experience with financial modeling and data analytics tools.
The group’s clients are broad, spanning from Fortune 100 corporations to privately held partnerships, and projects can last from several weeks to several years. Team members routinely interact with client personnel in accounting, financial reporting, treasury, legal and information technology departments as well outside attorneys. Our team has unique capabilities of providing financial insight constructed from a wide array of voluminous data sources by leveraging technological solutions.
