Valuation

Expert determination of business value may be required for family law or commercial litigation purposes. It may also assist purchasers or financiers when they contemplate buying a business. Accountants may require valuation opinions when restructuring entities. We also reassure stakeholders by assessing whether transactions are sustainably structured given the risks involved.

Economic loss assessments

Expert determination of economic loss is required in support of damages claims. It may also be required to assist in defending claims. BRI Ferrier provides expert assistance in loss determination, review of expert reports and structuring litigation.

Insurance claims

Prompt attention to claim preparation in the event of an insured loss is important to ensure that a business receives maximum benefit from its insurance cover. BRI Ferrier helps clients to quantify their claim and promptly activate the claim resolution process.
