Karolina Calhoun, CPA/ABV/CFF, vice president, is presenting “What Attorneys Should Know About Valuations of Closely Held Businesses” at the Tennessee Trial Lawyers Association’s “Memphis Family Law Seminar 2021.” This virtual event will be hosted on Thursday, March 18, 2021 (8:00 AM – 4:00 PM CT).

The valuation of a business is a complex process, requiring specialized professionals who apply the same finance & economic fundamentals used by public companies to evaluate and price private companies. In this session, Karolina delves into the processes and methodologies used in a valuation and provides examples of scenarios that may invoke the need for valuation services.

The Tennessee Trial Lawyers Association, originally founded 55 years ago, works to ensure that everyday citizens, Tennessee families, and small businesses are never deprived of their constitutional guarantee of access to justice.  The association is dedicated to protecting the constitutional promise of justice for all by guaranteeing the right to trial by jury, preserving an independent judiciary, and providing access to the courts for the people of Tennessee.

Karolina’s involvement with hundreds of valuation and litigation support engagements has qualified her a wealth of knowledge that extends across various industries on a local, national, and international level.  Her experience includes dissolutions, buy-sell agreements, business planning, shareholder dissent, financial reporting, and valuation analysis related to mergers & acquisitions.  Her expertise also includes, yet is not limited to intangible assets, private equity portfolio companies, contractual agreements, and complex capital structures, as well as the valuation of many intangible assets such as patents, customer lists, trademarks, and contracts.
