About the Podcast

The volatile economic conditions coupled with ongoing trading performance uncertainty has increased reliance on business valuations in family law property proceedings. While expert valuers are often engaged, what happens where one party disagrees with the valuation? This session examines the process with a critical eye and provides strategies for review, including:

  • Professional and ethical requirements and the appointment of an expert
  • The single expert valuation process and rules unpacked
  • Shadow and adversarial experts – is there a difference in the roles?
  • How to effectively ask questions of the valuer
  • What are the hurdles in getting another expert appointed?
  • What are the typical problems with / errors found in valuation reports?
  • When should different scenarios and updates be prepared?
