The SRA designation, awarded by the Appraisal Institute, represents one of the most respected professional credentials in residential real estate valuation.

Our appraisal reports are developed with the understanding that they may be reviewed by opposing parties, attorneys, mediators, accountants, judges, or government agencies.

Legal matters often require more than simply determining value. Reports must clearly explain the reasoning, market evidence, and conclusions supporting the opinion of value.

We understand legal deadlines can be critical. Our office works directly with attorneys, paralegals, executors, trustees, and other professionals to help keep assignments moving efficiently.

We frequently provide retrospective appraisals for:

• Probate administration 
• Estate tax reporting 
• IRS compliance 
• Trust settlement 
• Beneficiary distributions 

These assignments often require establishing the market value of real property as of a specific historical date. 

Independent appraisals can assist attorneys and parties in determining the value of residential real estate for equitable distribution and settlement negotiations.

When real estate value becomes a disputed issue, an independent appraisal can provide objective market evidence to support negotiations, mediation, or court proceedings.

Attorneys and financial professionals often require valuation services for trust administration, gifting strategies, and long-term estate planning purposes.

We provide attorney-related appraisal services throughout Southwest Florida, including:

• Lee County 
• Collier County 
• Charlotte County 
• Sarasota County 
• Hendry County 
• Glades County 

Additional areas may be available depending on the assignment.

If you are an attorney, mediator, executor, trustee, accountant, or legal professional seeking appraisal assistance, contact us to discuss your assignment.

We are happy to provide a fee quote, discuss scope of work requirements, and determine the most appropriate appraisal solution for your situation.
