Groves Valuations & Forensics is based in Sydney and Brisbane, but we work with clients across Australia and internationally.
While many valuations can be conducted remotely with secure access to information, we believe in the value of personal connection. Wherever necessary, we prioritise in-person meetings and are available to travel for matters that require a more hands-on or collaborative approach.
-
Yes — independence is one of our core principles. We provide unbiased, objective valuations that are not influenced by stakeholders or external pressures. Moreover, we specialise solely in valuations and are not part of a multi-disciplinary firm.

The duration required for valuations depends on several factors. This includes the size and complexity of the business and IP, and the purpose of the valuation.
As a general guide, valuations normally take anywhere from 2 weeks to 6 weeks to complete, however we often work to short timeframes to meet client needs.

At Groves Valuations & Forensics, we don’t take a one-size-fits-all approach. We carefully select the most appropriate valuation methods based on the specific circumstances of each engagement.
The right method depends on several factors — including the type of business or IP being valued, its financial and operational performance, the availability and reliability of data, the purpose of the valuation, and whether relevant market comparisons exist.
With significant experience, we’re well-versed in applying a range of accepted methodologies, and we’re always transparent about the approach we take.
