When CRE litigation turns on valuation, finance, transaction economics, ownership, or industry practice, the quality of the underlying expert analysis matters ...
Valuation disputes, lender liability, partnership dissolutions, breach of fiduciary duty, professional malpractice. Each requires an expert who can analyze the financials, render an independent opinion, and defend it under cross-examination.
Gregory J. Laskody has appraised the properties, underwritten the transactions, structured the capital stacks, and restructured the distressed assets. A former MAI, former state-certified general appraiser, and former state-certified appraisal instructor, he consults from over thirty years of direct experience.
