Practice

Economic damages, with the expertise that sits next to it.

The firm's practice is the reconstruction of economic loss. Adjacent expertise on the team rounds it out: vocational analysis where the question is earning capacity, human-capital expertise where the question is HR practice or executive pay. Employment litigation, personal injury, and family law.

The practice

Economic loss assessment.

The damages report is the firm's product. Built so it carries on its own: every assumption stated, every figure traceable to a source, every methodology defensible at deposition.
