Leverage Advantage 5™

Our firm is guided by five core principles of client service. When each of these guiding values are implemented together, the resulting leverage creates optimal advantage for the client.

1. Independence and Objectivity
   PVG’s independent and balanced valuation opinions help boards of directors, CFO’s, auditors and attorneys make informed decisions. As an independent shop, each valuation we perform goes through the same objective and rigorous set of analytical procedures, with no bias. As a result, our valuations have withstood challenges from the IRS, in litigation, and have been accepted by large accounting firms. Simply put our opinions matter.
   
   
2. Collaborative Approach
   Valuation is all about leveraging knowledge. We recognize that you, your investors, accountants, lawyers and other professionals each have important information to share in the process. By working collaboratively with you and your professional team, PVG strives to tap into institutional knowledge that already exists. In addition, we consult regularly with our in house tax and accounting experts on more complex matters.
   
   
3. Value Solution
   Although we are not a low cost provider, we realize that pricing matters to clients. PVG strives to build long-term relationships that make sense economically. As a boutique valuation shop located in Ellicott City, Maryland, we are focused and efficient. We believe our services are value priced, in that we offer high-end valuation services at a reasonable price.
   
   
4. Experienced Counsel
   Issuing a well supported valuation opinion requires the application of both technical knowledge and reasoned judgment. Put another way, valuation is both an art and a science. PVG professionals hold credentials in business valuation including membership in the American Society of Appraisers (ASA) and the National Association of Certified Valuation Analysts (NACVA). At the same time, PVG leverages the significant real world transactional, accounting and tax experience of its senior staff on every engagement.
   
   
5. Exceptional Access
   At PVG, we understand the importance of communication and access to our clients. Your business is important to us. We structure our engagements such that clients primarily interact with partner level and senior staff members, ensuring the engagement runs as smooth as possible. Being responsive is a top priority.
