Property and Business Valuations

Property Valuations and Business Valuations

A critical issue in dividing community property is the determination of value for property owned by a couple. While most couples are not going to argue about the value of pots and pans (we said most), the value of the community residence, business, or real estate is often an area of contention.

At Hoover & Bechtel, L.L.P., we have been successfully representing clients in family law matters since 1960. Benefits of our decades of practice in the Bay Area and Silicon Valley include our long-standing relationships with local business leaders who provide invaluable services for the benefit of our clients. When determining the value of a home, a business, or real estate, we know business and financial experts who can provide qualified valuations and appraisals.

In addition to homes, real estate, and businesses, another issue that can arise in a divorce is the value of personal property. With OUR MORE THAN 70 years of combined legal experience, our attorneys can handle any case involving any item of personal property, such as:

  • Jewelry
  • Precious Metals
  • Antiques
  • Art: paintings, statues, vintage items
  • Luxury Vehicles: yachts, sailboats, antique cars, aircraft
