Business Appraisals – Des Moines (IA)

 

Silhouette of the State of IowaMany business owners in Des Moines and across Iowa contemplate conducting a business valuation when it comes time for a transaction. While an independent determination of a company’s value is necessary before a transaction, a valuation has many other uses. The details contained within the report can provide important insight into how economic, competitive, global, and legal factors impact bottom-line value. There are other situations when a valuation may be required. These include seeking new financing, updating shareholder or partnership agreements, conducting estate and gift tax planning during succession planning, and benchmarking purposes.

We  work closely with attorneys throughout Iowa, including Des Moines, to assist when a valuation is needed for litigation purposes. This often occurs during divorce proceedings, partner disputes, damage assessments, executive compensation, partnership dissolution, and much more. Valuations for litigation purposes required a more experienced and technically proficient appraiser, with court room experience, to connect the dots and provide evidence for the case.
