Our Team
Brad P. Burns, CVA CFA
Principal
Working with my firm, you will get deep financial expertise to help resolve your questions of value. Over my career education has been very important to me. I hold the Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) and Certified Valuation Analyst (CVA) designation and have also practiced for 3 years as a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA). In addition, I am licensed in Georgia Real Estate. I attended Georgia Tech and Georgia State University here in Atlanta.
Prior to starting my own firm, I spent 20+ years working in strategic finance (Valuation, Planning, Acquisitions, ROI, etc.) for major corporations here in Atlanta supporting C-Suite executives. After my own divorce in 2009, I developed a passion for the critical need for financial experts in dispute resolution. This has grown into a business valuation practice serving this and your needs as an individual, business owner, legal expert, or tax professional.
