About the firm
Independent. Specialist. Quarter-end after quarter-end.
Brickell Valuation Partners was founded in 2014 as a single-line-of-business valuation specialist for the private capital community. Our partners came out of the valuation specialist groups at the Big-4 and at one of the leading independent valuation houses, and they kept hearing the same thing from GPs: we want this work, but not from a firm that’s also pitching us advisory.
Twelve years later we sit on quarterly valuation rolls for buyout, growth equity, and private credit funds across the lower- and middle-market — and increasingly in the GP-led secondary segment, where independent NAV references are not optional. We do not advise on transactions. We do not do tax structuring. We do not solicit M&A mandates from our valuation clients. The discipline is the product.
Today we operate from Miami, Florida with a remote-first practice that follows GPs and their auditors wherever the work is — New York, Boston, Chicago, San Francisco, London, and increasingly the Gulf and Asia. Every engagement team includes credentialed practitioners (ASA, CFA, AICPA-credentialed in business valuation), and every workpaper is built to interface cleanly with the auditor’s valuation specialist on day one.
How we work
Operating principles.
- One line of business. Valuation only. We refer M&A, transaction tax, and consulting work out — to firms that have agreed not to refer it back.
- Independence in fact and appearance. No GP holding more than 10% of any given partner’s annual hours. No partner with personal equity in any client GP or any portfolio company we mark.
- Workpapers that survive an inspection. Every engagement is built to PCAOB AS 2501 documentation standards from day one — not retrofitted under audit pressure.
- Calibration discipline. Quarterly marks reconcile to entry, exit, and round-pricing observations on a rolling basis. We document every triangulation point.
- No-comment is a deliverable. When the available data does not support a conclusion at the precision the auditor needs, we say so. The firm is built on the assumption that this answer is allowed.
