We divide our consulting testifying experts into two areas, quantitative and substantive, though there are several testifying experts who can provide testimony in both areas, should the case call for it. Quantitative experts provide testimony related to our account, valuation, and other related analyses, while our substantive experts provide testimony in relation to myriad other issues.
Our experts’ unique histories cover all aspects of the financial industry, from industry practices to specific products. We pride ourselves on providing the highest level of expertise, and you can see that commitment reflected in the quality of our individual consultants and experts, who typically have 15+ years of industry experience within their field, followed by years of experience testifying as expert witnesses in numerous forums.
We are proud to have established long-term relationships with our clients as a result of the strength of our experts—there is no higher compliment to us than a request asking to use the same expert again on another matter.
