Valuation Expertise Can Make the Difference to Your Bottom Line

Important Questions to Ask

In condemnation cases, we believe many issues affect the real value of your land or business. Will the government's taking damage your remaining property? Does your land possess development potential? Does your business have intangible value? Will operation of the business be curtailed or otherwise affected? Are fixtures and equipment involved? Is it a specialized business, dependent on the property the government wishes to take? Will you incur relocation expenses?

The answers to these questions can make the difference between receiving merely what the government wants to pay - and the just compensation to which you are constitutionally entitled for your property.

The key: You must be certain the business or property appraisals provided to the courts reflect these issues. What's more, these appraisals must interact properly with numerous valuation requirements established by the courts. In fact, failure to understand these principles can adversely affect the most crucial issue you face: the bottom line.

Our attorneys have day-to-day working knowledge of appraisal processes and practice, as well as their applications in court. Most of our attorneys have successfully completed intensive appraisal courses offered by national appraisal associations.

SPC has the knowledge, skill, and experience to generate the most effective treatment of each client we represent and the best results for you.
