Who Needs Litigation Support

When property value is disputed in court, you need an appraiser who can deliver a defensible report and stand behind it under cross-examination.

⚖️
Trial Attorneys
Need an appraisal that withstands opposing expert challenges. Mark's reports include detailed methodology documentation, adjustment rationale, and complete work file support.

Quiet Title & Condemnation
Whether establishing value for eminent domain proceedings or resolving title disputes, USPAP-compliant appraisals from a certified appraiser are the standard courts accept.

Litigation Appraisal FAQ

Are you available as an expert witness?
Yes. Mark Ragno is available for expert witness testimony, deposition, and trial support. With 20+ years of appraisal experience and certification in 25 states, Mark can explain methodology, defend comparable sales selection, and respond to opposing expert challenges. Expert witness services are quoted separately based on case requirements.
How do you prepare for deposition?
Mark maintains complete work files for every appraisal, including all data sources, comparable sales considered and rejected, adjustment rationale, and market condition analysis. Before a deposition, we review the case context with the engaging attorney to ensure all methodology questions can be answered clearly and completely.
How do you handle partition action appraisals?
Partition cases require an independent, neutral valuation that the court can rely on. We provide a USPAP-compliant fair market value opinion considering the property's highest and best use — whether that's a buyout scenario, forced sale, or physical division. The report addresses all factors the court needs to make an equitable decision.
What if there's an opposing appraisal you disagree with?
We can review opposing appraisals and provide a detailed analysis of methodology differences, comparable sales selection, and adjustment rationale. If the opposing report has material errors or unsupported conclusions, we document those issues with specific data — giving your attorney the ammunition needed for cross-examination.
What types of litigation do you support?
We support partition actions, quiet title disputes, condemnation and eminent domain cases, construction defect litigation, insurance disputes, bankruptcy proceedings, lender liability cases, and any other litigation where residential property value is at issue. If it involves residential real estate value, we can help.
