Lone Peak was founded in 2008 by alumni from “Big 4” audit firms and independent valuation firms. They are licensed CPA’s, many of whom hold multiple professional designations and have unique experience outside of the valuation industry.
This team of professionals greatly enriched Marshall & Stevens’ capabilities in litigation support and in the valuation of business enterprises and intangible assets. They are relied upon to provide expert reports and testimony for commercial litigation, personal injury, divorce and family law matters, as well as valuations for tax and financial reporting.
