Seattle Business Valuations
Seattle and Washington business owners will only need a business valuation just a few times throughout the span of their career. For most, it is needed when a transaction is scheduled to occur and an independent assessment of a company’s value is required. However, a valuation can also provide essential insights to ownership prior to placing the business for sale. Important information about the strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities (both operationally and in the marketplace) provides key details on how to maximize value. This allows critical changes to be made which can positively impact the sales price.
Beyond transactions, there are several other situations in which a valuation may be required. Often attorneys will need to understand the value of an asset involved in commercial litigation, marital disputes, and other court proceedings. Outside of the courtroom, a valuation is often needed for tax reporting, estate planning, charitable gifts, and partnership agreements. Regardless of the reason, it is essential to engage with a seasoned provider with the requisite experience to meet your needs.
