Neutral, Court-Tested Appraisals for Equitable Distribution.
In divorce proceedings, the marital home is often the most contentious asset. A generic appraisal can become a liability if it fails to account for market timing or retrospective dates of separation.
Washington Appraisal provides Divorce Appraisals specifically designed for equitable distribution. We are experienced in providing neutral expert witness testimony and “Retrospective Valuations” (value as of a past date).
Why Family Law Attorneys Use Us:
Neutral Expert Witness: We maintain strict impartiality, whether retained by one party or as a joint expert.
Retrospective Capability: We accurately determine value as of the date of separation or filing.
Court-Ready Documentation: Our reports are written to withstand cross-examination and judicial review.
