by a searcher from Harvard University

Hi what is the usual fees for a CPA firm and a law firm for supporting initial valuation and due diligence work? I am getting some crazy numbers and wanted to benchmark what others have seen regarding fees . I am talking relatively straightforward transactions and not overtly complex ones, thanks Vidhu

We are currently under LOI and budgeting around $15K for legal and $15-$20k for CPA... typically I would say CPA should be less, but this deal has some dirty books we need to sift through.
