Business Valuation and Litigation Support Team Decosimo Advisory Services is one of the leading valuation firms in the South. During 2011 we testified in multiple federal and state courts, including US Tax Court, on issues such as business valuation in divorce, breach of contract damages, lost profits damages, the valuation of minority interests in closely held companies, forensic accounting, and wrongful death litigation. We provided business valuations to help owners transition control and to plan their estates, to facilitate transactions among shareholders, and to meet regulatory requirements. We provided impairment testing and purchase price allocation services to help our clients meet the requirements of the new intangible asset accounting rules. We provided professional leadership by providing training to other valuation professionals, speaking at industry conferences, serving on committees of national business valuation organizations, and publishing technical articles. |
