Business Valuations in Divorce Proceedings

---

The Valuation Team provides independent business valuations for divorce, separation and family court proceedings across the UK. 

Where a private company or shareholding forms part of matrimonial assets, a professionally prepared business valuation is often essential to financial remedy proceedings. We provide independent, evidence-based valuation opinions designed to assist solicitors, mediators and the Court.

Our reports provide an objective opinion of value, supported by robust financial analysis and transparent methodology, enabling fair financial settlement discussions.

We have extensive experience preparing company valuations for divorce cases, including private limited companies, owner-managed businesses, partnerships and shareholdings.

Every valuation is:

• Prepared by qualified corporate finance professionals
   
• Independently reviewed by a UK firm of Chartered Accountants

• Structured specifically for use in legal proceedings
   
• Fully compliant with professional standards

• Clear, structured and evidentially supported
   
• Protected by comprehensive professional indemnity insurance
   

Our reports are prepared with awareness of legal scrutiny and evidential standards.

The Valuation Team is regularly appointed as a Single Joint Expert (SJE) under Part 25 of the Family Procedure Rules. Our overriding duty when appointed as Single Joint Expert is to the Court. 

We provide a neutral, independent and balanced opinion of value based solely on the evidence available. This approach:

• Reduces conflict and competing expert reports
   
• Assists proportionality of costs
   
• Streamlines financial remedy proceedings
   
• Provides clarity for both parties and their advisers
   

Whether instructed jointly or by one party as a party-appointed expert, our independence remains absolute.

We understand the need for timely reporting within family proceedings and work to agreed timescales. 

Our pricing is transparent and proportionate, helping to keep the process manageable during what can be an emotionally challenging time.

We are also available to act as an expert witness in family court proceedings where required (fees agreed separately).
