Practice areas
Ten practice areas, one question behind all of them: what number does the record actually support, and will it hold up under cross-examination.
Litigation
Employment & wage-and-hour
Back pay, front pay, lost benefits, tax gross-up and class-wide wage models. Regular rate, off-the-clock, meal and rest, misclassification, PAGA.
Personal injury & wrongful death
Lost earnings and earning capacity, household services, and life care plan present value. Single plaintiffs and wildfire or mass disaster claim inventories.
Commercial litigation
Lost profits, lost business value, price erosion, credit damages, business interruption and breach of contract.
Securities litigation
Event studies, loss causation and materiality, class-period damages, ERISA claims and market manipulation.
Intellectual property
Reasonable royalties, lost profits, price erosion and disgorgement — with apportionment built to survive challenge.
Financial misconduct
Unsuitable products, excessive fees, annuity and pension decisions. For claimants and for professionals defending an allegation.
Accounting and valuation
Forensic accounting
Tracing, misappropriation, financial misstatement, internal control review and dissolution accounting. Led by a CPA.
Economic consulting & valuation
Business and asset valuation for disputes, transactions and reporting. ESOP, 409A and EB-5 impact studies.
Analysis
Data science
Econometrics, statistical sampling and machine learning — for class certification, disparity studies and business forecasting.
Impact analysis
Standardized Regulatory Impact Assessments, economic impact studies, scenario modeling and market risk testing.
Construction and utilities
Construction damages
Delay and disruption, cost overruns, lost profits and lost bonding capacity, change-order economics and progress-payment review. For owners, general contractors, subcontractors and sureties — and we quantify the damages rather than opine on the engineering.
Electrical & utility damages
Utility-caused fire losses, outage and interruption damages, infrastructure failure and energy-project disputes. Single claimants and inventories running to thousands — the Thomas, Woolsey and Camp fires among them.
