    - May 12 2022 Terri’s experience was very helpful in navigating a very difficult situation. Each party hired their own valuation team. Terri was thorough and followed up.

  • Christy Cornejo

    - May 12 2022 I cannot put into words how incredibly valuable Terry was to my high conflict divorce. She went above and beyond with her research, explanations and anything else that I required to make me feel comfortable and confident. She was understanding and promptly returned phone calls which is hard to come by these days. I can’t say enough good things about her. She was worth every penny and more. She’s smart, ethical, professional and exactly what you want when you have a litigation or evaluation case. I truly felt like she had my best interest always.

  • Eileen M. Joyce

    - May 02 2019 Terri is not only very personable, but took the time and made the effort to educate me on the valuation process and methodologies so that I could enter negotiations with third parties armed with a working knowledge on matters to which I had no previous exposure. I have since referred her to colleagues requiring similar consultation. That she is able to bring legal, accounting and appraisal perspectives in one package makes her a unique and valuable resource.

  • Eric Jennings

    - Jan 02 2019 Ms. Lastovka has done valuations for our Family LLC a number of times - both for estate purposes and for on-going share sales. Valuing the LLC is challenging due to the nature of the assets it owns and its quite restrictive Operating Agreement. She consistently digs deep into the company's details to understand the entire situation and its subtleties - with the result that her valuations are insightful and reasonable. I have felt very confident in providing her valuations for IRS filings and for shareholders' use.

    - Dec 29 2017 I actually first consulted with Terri for a second opinion on issues involving a problematic and complicated business valuation in a high asset divorce case.

Terri was extremely knowledgeable, quick to respond, and had a keen understanding of business, accounting, and legal issues involved in dividing business interests in divorces. Most importantly, she explained things in a down-to-earth manner and was a good teacher in that regard. I would most highly recommend Terri for your litigation needs.
