What is the loss actually worth?
We are the forensic economists trial counsel retain to answer that — and to defend the answer under oath. Economic damages, forensic accounting and expert testimony in wildfire and mass‑disaster litigation, employment and wage‑and‑hour matters, personal injury and wrongful death, and commercial disputes. Conflicts cleared immediately and availability confirmed against your deadline.
Run a conflict check
Party names are what the check runs against. Nothing privileged is requested.
What do you need the expert to do?
Most expert sites organize by service. You think in terms of the job in front of you — so that is how this is organized. Pick the one that matches your file.
Prove damages
You need an affirmative damages calculation, a Rule 26 report, and someone who will hold up at deposition and trial. We build the model from source data and defend every assumption on the record.
Retain an affirmative expert →Rebut their expert
A report just landed and the number is wrong. We reverse‑engineer the opposing model, isolate the defective assumptions, and give you the cross‑examination outline along with the rebuttal report.
Request a rebuttal review →Value the case
Pre‑mediation, pre‑demand, or evaluating whether to take the case at all. We give you a defensible exposure range fast, before you commit to a number you cannot walk back.
Get a preliminary range →Send us the file
You already have the complaint, the records or the opposing report. Send them over a secure link and we will review the matter and come back to you.
Upload securely →Damages analysis, by claim type
Each area below is its own discipline — its own accepted methods, its own case law on admissibility, its own failure modes. Follow a panel for the assignments we actually take.
Personal Injury & Wrongful Death
Lost earnings and earning capacity, household services, life care plan present value and wrongful death — for single plaintiffs and for large claim inventories.
Employment & Wage-and-Hour
Back pay, front pay, lost benefits, tax gross‑up and class‑wide wage models — regular‑rate analysis and PAGA exposure, built to survive certification.
Commercial & Business Damages
Lost profits, lost business value, price erosion, credit damages and business interruption — built to hold up at mediation and under cross‑examination.
Forensic Accounting
Tracing, misappropriation, financial misstatement, internal control review and dissolution accounting — led by a CPA with AICPA forensic accounting certification.
Securities Litigation
Event studies, loss causation and materiality, class‑period damages and ERISA plan losses — across debt, equity, derivative and commodity markets.
Intellectual Property
Reasonable royalties, lost profits, price erosion and disgorgement in patent, trade secret and trademark matters — with apportionment done so the royalty base survives challenge.

You retain a person
The expert named in your designation is the person who builds the model and sits for the deposition.
How retaining us actually works
Four steps. No mystery, no discovery call that turns into a sales process.
Conflict check — immediate
You send party names. We run them against our matter database and confirm clear or conflicted immediately.
Scoping call — free, 20–30 minutes
The claims, the data available, the deadlines, the theory. We tell you what is provable, what is not, and what data you need to demand.
Written scope and budget
Before any engagement letter: defined deliverables, an hours estimate by phase, and the retainer. You know the number before you commit.
Preliminary analysis first
We produce a preliminary damages range before writing a report, so you can make settlement decisions early rather than after the expert budget is spent.
Rates and CV, sent together
Rates depend on which expert the matter needs and what the analysis requires. We send the schedule with the CV the moment you ask.
| What you get on request | When |
|---|---|
| Current rate sheet, by role | Same business day |
| CV of the expert who would be designated | Same business day |
| Conflict check result | Immediate |
| Written scope and phase budget | After the scoping call |
No contingent fees. Our compensation is never tied to the outcome or the size of the damages figure — a NAFE ethical requirement, and the first thing opposing counsel asks at deposition.
Send us the party names. We clear conflicts immediately.
No engagement, no cost, no sales process. If we're conflicted or not the right expert, we'll say so and point you somewhere useful.
