Shareholder and partnership valuation fights
Shareholder disputes frequently involve fair value vs fair market value frameworks, oppression remedies, and buyout timing. Experts must align methods with the governing statute and the company’s capital structure.
Partnership disputes may involve ambiguous buyout clauses and disputed goodwill treatment.
Divorce valuations and double-counting risks
Divorce matters may require enterprise value, personal goodwill issues (where applicable), and careful coordination with support and equitable distribution theories.
Experts should watch for double counting between asset values and income streams.
M&A disagreements and earnout disputes
Post-closing disputes often involve earnout accounting, EBITDA definitions, and working capital true-ups. Valuation experts translate contract definitions into reconciled calculations tied to GL detail.
Trial exhibits often compare “contract EBITDA” to “reported EBITDA” line by line.
