What goes wrong — and how to avoid it

Hiring too late

Engage an appraiser well in advance of hearing or trial deadlines.

Single-perspective comparables

Litigation reports should reconcile multiple lines of evidence and disclose limitations.

Questions to ask

Before you hire any appraiser

  • Have you testified in court? In what jurisdictions?
  • What's your hourly rate for discovery and testimony?
  • Will you produce a Form 53 or equivalent expert acknowledgement?
