Severly commonly used methods of valuing closely held companies and professional practices have developed over the years. These methods are widely used by appraisers and others who are responsible for estimating fair market value indicates California Business Attorney Steven C. Peck. Although some of these methods may not be suitable for buy-sell agreements, business law attorneys should have at least some familiarity with the procedures.

Before using any partiuclar valuation method, an appraiser is required to make a study of the economics of the particular industry of which the company is a part, the company's competitive market position, the economic environment of the market served, the experience and capability of management and the assembled work force, the company's financial position and earnings record, and other pertinent factors says California Business Lawyer Steven C. Peck.
