Settling shareholder disputes — Valuators build a bridge over troubled waters

Description

Abstract: A company’s owners tend to get along when times are good, but economic downturns can bring out the worst in shareholder relations. This article uses a hypothetical case study to illustrate how valuators can serve as expert witnesses or consultants, helping settle shareholder disputes both in and out of court. Valuators are objective outsiders who can defuse emotions and help the remaining owners refocus their attention on building and preserving value.
