AP has a disputes and vals practice as a subset of its risk/FAS group, no “traditional” Val practice. Our disputes & vals practice will do that kind of work, but only when circumstances justify the higher billing rate.

In terms of WLB/culture, I have enjoyed it. PMDs are “with the times” and do their best to respect PTO and weekends. Hours have been on the high end this summer due to volume of work, but 60+ hour weeks are generally uncommon

Thanks! This is super helpful. Glad you've enjoyed it

Disputes is an entirely different practice separate from Valuations at A&M. Pretty sure the same is true at AP or that Valuations is at least a specific subgroup within Disputes there. Which are you really asking about?
