Do you work for the client or for the referring firm?

Either. We can be instructed directly by you, jointly by both parties, or by your client with you copied in. The report is addressed to whoever instructs it and the basis of instruction is stated on the face of it.

Will you conflict us out of other work?

No. We don't sell businesses, we don't prepare accounts and we don't provide tax advice, so there is no service of yours we can encroach on. Valuation is the only thing we do.

Can you act as a single joint expert?

Yes. We regularly prepare valuations on a single joint expert basis for family and commercial matters, with the duty to the court stated in the report.

How quickly can you turn work around?

Three working days from receiving the financial information. Where a deadline is tighter than that, tell us at the outset and we will say honestly whether we can meet it.

Methods triangulated on every report3

Every report sets out the methodology, the normalisation adjustments and the comparable evidence, so it can be interrogated by the other side rather than taken on trust.
