We are proud of the individual prominence and experience of our analysts. Many of our analysts hold graduate business degrees and such professional credentials as certified public accountant (CPA), accredited in business valuation (ABV), certified in financial forensics (CFF), chartered financial analyst (CFA), certified fraud examiner (CFE), certified valuation analyst (CVA), and/or certified business appraiser (CBA).

Our analysts regularly hold leadership positions on standards-setting committees of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the Institute of Business Appraisers, the National Association of Certified Valuation Analysts, the ESOP Association, the Business Valuation Association, and similar professional organizations. And our analysts are full-time valuation, transaction opinion, and economic damages practitioners. That is, they are not part-time accountants, bankers, etc., who perform valuation or damages analysis services on an ad hoc basis. On the tabs below you will find brief CVs for our professional staff.
