Forensic economic consulting is the core of our practice. Dr. Pettingill prepares damages analyses that meet the evidentiary standards of every state and federal court he has appeared in, with methodology grounded in peer-reviewed economic literature and U.S. government data sources.
Every report we produce begins with a careful scope conversation. We identify the economic questions actually in dispute, the data that will be required, and the assumptions that need to be vetted against the record. We do not offer opinions outside our discipline; where a vocational, medical, or actuarial input is needed, we rely on the appropriate expert and document the chain of reliance in the report.
Our deliverables are designed to be useful at every stage of litigation — from early case assessment, through Rule 26 disclosures and depositions, to direct and cross examination at trial. Each calculation is transparent, replicable, and tied to the underlying source so opposing experts and the trier of fact can follow the work.
