Our team includes the 100+ professionals in our office that hold leadership status in taxation, real estate, IT risk assessment, financial reporting…you name it, we’ve got it (that’s what you get with the depth and breadth of Perkins). And, you won’t get surprises from us. Our experience in the courtroom ensures that the results are understandable and persuasive.

We can help you with…

• Expert testimony
