Over 25 years of experience in appraising and litigation
Considered one of the world's leading equine appraisers & equine expert witness, we have appraised some of the top show jumping and dressage horses around the world and have been hired globally as an equine expert and consultant on countless litigation cases. We have qualified as an equine expert in court proceedings in both Canada and the United States. We work closely with several major insurance companies in the U.S. and Canada on death claim reimbursements. Additionally, we have completed appraisals for multi-million-dollar estate and insurance settlements, as well as IRS tax audits. We have been appraising for over two decades and have helped our clients win millions in litigation judgments and settlements. Private investigation services are also available.
Daventry appraisals are considered qualified for legal purposes internationally and are known for their thoroughness and attention to detail. We are also considered a qualified appraiser by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and our appraisals comply with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). Combined with our background and credentials in the equine industry, Daventry appraisals and expertise provide a valuable asset in the courtroom!
