When a marriage dissolves, real property is typically the most significant asset involved. Getting the value right is paramount—for an equitable distribution, for the court, and for both parties to move forward.
At Witherell & Associates, we provide specialized appraisal services for marital dissolution proceedings throughout the Puget Sound. With nearly three decades of experience, we deliver exactly what family law attorneys and the courts require: defensible conclusions, credible methodology, and expert testimony that holds up under cross-examination.
Built for Litigation, Not Lenders
Divorce appraisals are fundamentally different from a standard lending appraisal. The bar is much higher. Our reports are built for the courtroom from day one:
- Fully USPAP-Compliant: Prepared to withstand intense scrutiny from opposing counsel and independent reviews.
- Flexible Valuation Dates: Expertly handling both current market value and retrospective (historical) dates of value.
- Expert Witness Testimony: Available for depositions, settlement conferences, and formal trial testimony.
Whether you are an attorney managing a complex dissolution or a homeowner navigating this process directly, we maintain strict neutrality and clear communication from start to finish.
Need to consult on a valuation issue before engaging our services? Reach out directly—we are always happy to discuss the specifics of your case.
When engaged for appraisal services, Witherell & Associates acts solely as an independent, neutral third party. We do not mix appraisal and brokerage roles on the same assignment. If we appraise your property, we will not list it unless legally permissible and agreed upon by all parties. These are two separate services, and we keep them that way.
