Data-driven valuations built to withstand cross-examination.
Clear narrative support, supported adjustments, and 20+ years of experience in the field. USPAP-compliant, unbiased, accurate valuations you can count on.

Résumé, geographic competency statement, Maryland license, and credentials in one PDF.
07 · Family Law
An impartial value for the Rule 9-207 statement.
Maryland’s joint property statement includes each party’s asserted fair market value. I document the residential valuation evidence for the effective date specified in the engagement.
I develop the opinion under USPAP. The report explains the data sources, comparable selection, adjustments, and reconciliation. Supporting records are retained in the workfile.
- Retrospective effective dates
- A separation date, filing date, or other past date may require a different analysis from current value. Counsel identifies the relevant date before I begin.
- Single-party or joint engagement
- I can accept either arrangement. Impartiality remains required; the client, intended users, and scope are defined for the particular assignment.
- Disclosure timing
- Give me the applicable scheduling-order deadlines when requesting a quote. I confirm availability before accepting the engagement.
- Separate testimony terms
- Deposition and trial testimony are discussed and quoted separately. A report fee does not automatically include either service.
Related Assignments
Partition and buyouts
I value the identified real property interest for the stated effective date, with the adjustment reasoning stated so both parties can examine it.
Appraisal review
I review an identified appraisal within a separately defined review scope.
- Fees are flat and are not contingent on the opinion of value, the direction of value, or the outcome of the matter.
- Engagement, intended use, and intended users are defined in writing before work begins.
- The appraiser is engaged by the attorney or the party, and the scope of work is agreed in advance.
Initial conversations are confidential. Do not send filings, financial records, or nonpublic personal information until scope, intended use, and effective date are confirmed in writing.
Counsel determines disclosure obligations and admissibility requirements. I do not represent that an appraisal will be admitted by a court.
