As asset recovery specialists, we recognize the true economic value of businesses. Rather than relying on one method to value an enterprise, we use a multiple method approach. These traditionally accepted methods we use include discounted cash flow analysis, public company analysis, capitalized earnings approach, and similar transaction analysis. Because future projections of an enterprise’s operations are the key to justifiable and reliable business valuations, we work closely with management teams to understand their projections and make recommendations if necessary. Furthermore, we have experience in combined enterprise valuations that require an analysis of the synergies and cost economies that usually result from business combinations.

Both Alfred T. Giuliano and Patrick J. Mohnacs are licensed Certified Fraud Examiners. Additionally, Donna Miller’s background includes bank fraud investigation and internal auditing for fraud. This experience has led our firm to handle several fraud investigation cases, some involving several million dollars. In the case of bankruptcy, proving fraud has resulted in recovery of assets to the estate.

Our experience in contract dispute cases and transaction analysis covers a wide spectrum of situations including employment termination and executive compensation issues to complex stock transactions. We also serve as experts in contract disputes arising in the normal course of business. Each dispute is unique and requires a seasoned-eye towards identifying the associated issues and avoiding the potential pitfalls.

As bankruptcy experts, we frequently assess damages in the claims process. This expertise gives us an advantage when evaluating damages claims. As CPA’s, we are able to evaluate historical financial statements and the complex disclosures that usually accompany these statements.
