In various types of financial litigation, we assist clients with the valuation of whole businesses and complex assets and financial instruments, including options, asset-backed securities, credit default swaps, and distressed assets. Our experts have developed a suite of Equity and Stock Option Valuation (ESOVAL®) models. These models, based on state-of-the-art lattice- and -Monte Carlo simulation approaches, are cutting-edge tools for the valuation of employee stock options and other compensation instruments typically awarded by present-day employers. These instruments include traditional employee stock options (ESOs) as well as complex nontraditional instruments, such as capped, indexed, barrier, hurdle rate and market-based ESOs, and stock appreciation rights.
