Paul Heidt brings close to 25 years of specialized experience in financial analysis and research. He has performed 250+ business appraisals for litigation, gift and estate tax planning, marital dissolution, business transactions, reorganizations and succession planning.

Attorneys and business owners count on Paul for solid business appraisals, lost earnings analysis and litigation research. He helps a business understand how much it is really worth by looking under the hood and doing the due diligence to paint a full picture of its financials. Paul is passionate about research and helping businesses solve issues.

When there is more at risk, or a report is required by the IRS, Paul conducts an extensive review process and delivers a full appraisal. He does more complex work that involves multi-tiered entities and comes up with different ways to attack issues that may not be the more obvious options.

Paul previously served as Manager of Financial Research for the publishing firm of Business Valuation Resources, LLC (BVR). He managed several private company transaction databases, including Pratt’s Stats®. Paul was also the Managing Editor for a quarterly economic publication used in appraisal reports and books contributing to the body of knowledge in the business valuation profession.
