Buy Now

This On Demand was recorded on 14 May 2020.

Understand how ownership interests in law firms are valued. How does a valuer determine fair value for interests in legal firms for relationship property division, partnership or estate disputes, or for merger or new partner admission negotiations? What are the key drivers of value and how can value be recognised? Is there business value that can be separated from personal reputation? 

Who Should Watch

Barristers or litigation lawyers specialising
in relationship property, general practitioners thinking about selling their
practice, lawyers considering purchasing a practice or becoming equity partners
in or owners of a law firm, partners in firms wanting to assess if their
current partnership entry/exit model is appropriate.
