Please read below for The Hancock Firm's Philosophy.


Our hands-on approach to your business valuation or litigation support issues allows us to gain personal knowledge about your situation. That personal knowledge allows us to convert our conceptual knowledge into an effective tool for identifying your needs and problems, making discoveries, and developing true and unbiased understandings.

The Hancock Firm continuously seeks to learn new frameworks and models to work out concrete problems. In our fields, including business valuation, we constantly absorb increasing amounts of specific knowledge, including rules, facts, laws, terminology and relationships. At some point, in our designs, we know these details well enough in order to focus on the whole. We can then begin to see patterns, the meaning of things, and sense when something is right or wrong; for instance, in litigation support of a lost profits rebuttal or alter ego, single business enterprise claim.

The process of discovery begins when we observe a gap between what is and what could ( or should ) be. The Hancock Firm encourages a culture of discovery in our pursuit of our own, and others, hunches. In that pursuit, we strive to clearly articulate our hypotheses so they can be challenged and tested. The result of successful applications of this open-minded discovery and pursuit is the development of personal knowledge. Such knowledge can be applied to reach fair and reasonable solutions in business valuation, lost profits and economic damages in litigation support, and strategic business issues.
