Matt Black to Lead Yeo & Yeo’s Valuation, Forensics, and Litigation Support Services Group
Yeo & Yeo CPAs & Advisors is pleased to announce that Matt Black, ASA, will lead the firm’s Valuation, Forensics and Litigation Support Services Group.
Yeo & Yeo’s Valuation, Forensics, and Litigation Support Services Group provides valuation, forensic accounting, and litigation support services to businesses, law firms, receivers, trustees, financial institutions, and individuals. The team supports clients through some of their most complex and high-stakes situations, including mergers and acquisitions, succession planning, shareholder disputes, divorce proceedings, and litigation matters requiring expert financial analysis and testimony. Previously led by Principal Chris Sheridan, CPA, CFE, CVA, the group has expanded in both scope and complexity of engagements. Sheridan will continue to serve as a core member of the group, providing deep experience and continuity for clients.
Black joined Yeo & Yeo in 2025 as a Senior Business Valuation Manager in response to the firm’s continued growth and increasing client demand for specialized business valuation and litigation support services. Black was brought on to be solely dedicated to business valuation and litigation matters, strengthening the firm’s ability to deliver focused expertise and consistent leadership in this highly technical area.
“Matt’s background and exclusive focus on valuation and litigation services have further strengthened our ability to serve clients facing complex financial and legal challenges,” said Sheridan. “His experience enhances our team’s depth and his leadership positions the group to continue growing while delivering the high level of insight and credibility our clients expect.”
Black’s background includes more than 15 years of experience in business valuation, litigation support, consulting, and mergers and acquisitions for privately held companies across a wide range of industries. Prior to joining Yeo & Yeo, he held several leadership roles, including Senior Manager at KPMG, one of the nation’s four largest accounting firms. He holds the Accredited Senior Appraiser (ASA) credential, reflecting his experience valuing both closely held and publicly traded companies, as well as a broad range of business intangible assets. His work often supports complex financial decisions and legal matters where precision, objectivity, and defensible analysis are critical.
“Clients rely on valuation and forensic work to bring clarity to challenging situations,” Black said. “Whether they’re navigating a transaction, resolving a dispute, or planning for the future, our goal is to provide clear, well-supported insights they can trust to move forward with confidence.”
Black is a member of the American Society of Appraisers and holds a Bachelor of Arts in Finance from Michigan State University. Outside of work, he is actively involved in the community, volunteering with Special Olympics Michigan and previously serving on the organization’s board. He also supports Make-A-Wish Michigan.
