    • Buying or selling a business
    • Estate or gift taxes
    • Divorce or prenuptial planning
    • Exit / Succession Planning
    • Changing from a C Corp to an S Corp
    • Employee Stock Ownership Plans (ESOPs)
    • SBA or other business loans
    • Cockrill, Rueschenberg and Walsh analysis
  • We specialize in closely-held companies, partnerships and professional practices in a variety of industries including construction, insurance, holding companies, manufacturing, retail, wholesale/distributing, restaurants and real estate and more.
  • Credentialed by National Association of Certified Valuation Analysts (CVA) with expertise in valuation.  It’s important to work with a credentialed professional if the reports are going to be scrutinized by the IRS or provided to the court.
  • We provide service levels ranging from calculations of value summarized in a letter report to detailed valuation reports containing analysis of a business’ economy, industry, operations and the rationale for discounts taken to arrive at fair market value.
