| economic damages expert witness: Forensic Economics Frank D. Tinari, 2016-12-01 This edited collection addresses the major issues encountered in the calculation of economic damages to individuals in civil litigation. In federal and state courts in the United States, as well as in other nations, when one party sues another, the suing party is required not only to prove that the harm was, indeed, caused by the other party, but also to claim and demonstrate that a specified dollar value represents just compensation for the harm. Forensic economists are often called upon to evaluate, measure, and opine on the degree of economic loss that is alleged to have occurred. Aimed at both practitioners and theorists, the original articles and essays in the edited collection are written by nationally recognized and widely published forensic experts. Its strength is in showcasing theories, methods, and measurements as they differ in a variety of cases, and in its review of the forensic economics literature developed over the past thirty years. Readers will find informative discussions of topics such as establishing earnings capacity for both adults and infants, worklife probability, personal consumption deductions, taxation as treated in federal and state courts, valuing fringe benefits, discounting theory and practice, the effects of the Affordable Care Act, the valuation of personal services, wrongful discharge, hedonics, effective communication by the expert witness, and ethical issues. The volume also covers surveys of the views of practicing forensic economists, the connection between law and forensic economics, alternatives to litigation in the form of VCF-like schedules, and key differences among nations in measuring economic damages. |

| economic damages expert witness: Financial Expert Witness Communication Bradley J. Preber, 2014-05-27 Learn what to expect—and what's expected—as an expert witness Serving as a financial expert witness or consultant in lawsuits is a stressful, challenging, and tough business. In Financial Expert Witness Communication: A Practical Guide to Reporting and Testimony, financial forensic expert Bradley J. Preber leverages more than 30 years of experience to create a practical guide for financial expert witnesses as they face litigation reporting and testimony. Financial Expert Witness Communication covers all areas of financial litigation including accounting, financial forensics, forensic technology, and damages—all from the point of view of an expert witness. The book is especially helpful for those who expect to be formally designated as an expert witness; however, it is also appropriate for financial forensic accountants, litigation consultants, and attorneys as they navigate the unique playing field of the financial litigation process. This book gives financial experts strategies to defend the analysis, conclusions, and expert opinions they have at their disposal. It also provides thorough explanations of compliance, data limitations, and due diligence as well as how to handle demanding legal counsel, with a goal of better preparing them for the entire legal process. The book is part of the Wiley Corporate F&A Series and was created as an educational resource for nonattorney financial experts involved with U.S.-based civil litigation or alternative dispute resolution proceedings. It takes a well-rounded approach by including special chapters on such concepts as retention, privilege, responsibilities, ethics, and testimony, all written by a nationally recognized expert. As a bonus, the companion website presents an additional expert witness case study and guidelines for fulfilling an expert witness role. |
| economic damages expert witness: Fighting Slander Nicholas Carroll, 2021-04 Fighting Slander is a book for defamation victims or attorneys:For defamation victims/targets who want to move on with their lives, ending the defamation, leaving behind bad memories and toxic people and the word victim, moving towards a brighter future with renewed optimism and their reputation restored.Fighting Slander looks at the simplest solutions first, from pretending to ignore it (not talking about it outside of friends and family), to a cease and desist letter (the cheapest legal solution), to erasing defamation from the internet with takedown notices to the website owners - only then does it move into a plain-English description of the legal options if a full lawsuit is necessary, with claims for economic damages and/or emotional distress. (If the solution is legal, act promptly - defamation lawsuits, even simple ones for takedown notices - must generally be filed in as little as 1-2 years.)For attorneys and law firms who rarely see defamation cases, perhaps taking one on for a regular client, or because they are willing to fight the good fight. At 170 pages, Fighting Slander is thorough but digestible, in between the 10-page student guides meant to pass one exam and the 1,600 page practice guides that tell every detail there is to know about defamation law. |

| economic damages expert witness: Measuring Commercial Damages Patrick A. Gaughan, 2000 Despite its obvious importance and the recent boom in litigation support, valuation of commercial damages for litigation purposes has, until now, lacked a complete methodological framework for accountants, economists, and attorneys. Measuring Commercial Damages explains how commercial damages in litigation should be measured and provides an integrated accounting and economics approach that explains exactly what accountants need to know about economics to measure commercial damages. Valuing the damages of a company in litigation requires not only a far-reaching knowledge of the research and practices of account-ing, but also a working knowledge of macroeconomics, microeconomics, econometrics, and finance, including investment analysis, capital market theory, and corporate finance. While few experts possess strengths in all of the required areas, this book?s easy-to-understand methods offer an integrated approach so that practitioners in the fields of accounting, economics, and law can clearly understand and effectively utilize material presented from other fields. Measuring Commercial Damages is the first book to put forth a standard methodology for the most common types of commercial damages, from basic lost profits to losses that occur in business valuation, intellectual property, securities, and antitrust litigation. Drawing from a wide range of published articles, case studies, and treatises from legal, economic, accounting, and financial literature, this book provides practitioners with the knowledge to more confidently write an expert report and even testify as an expert witness in commercial damage litigation. |

After reading and understanding this book, the reader will be able to identify economic damages as a component of business liability, describe the business risk posed by economic damages, explain the key determinants of economic damages, and estimate economic damages and business loss in a variety of cases. |

| economic damages expert witness: Everydata John H. Johnson, 2016-10-14 While everyone is talking about big data, the truth is that understanding the little data--the stats that underlie newspaper headlines, stock reports, weather forecasts, and so on--is what helps you make smarter decisions at work, at home, and in every aspect of your life. The average person consumes approximately 30 gigabytes of data every single day, but has no idea how to interpret it correctly. EVERYDATA explains, through the eyes of an expert economist and statistician, how to decipher the small bytes of data we consume in a day. EVERYDATA is filled with countless examples of people misconstruing data--with results that range from merely frustrating to catastrophic: The space shuttle Challenger exploded in part because the engineers were reviewing a limited sample set. Millions of women avoid caffeine during pregnancy because they interpret correlation as causation. Attorneys faced a $1 billion jury verdict because of outlier data. Each chapter highlights one commonly misunderstood data concept, using both realworld and hypothetical examples from a wide range of topics, including business, politics, advertising, law, engineering, retail, parenting, and more. You'll find the answer to the question--Now what?--along with concrete ways you can use this information to immediately start making smarter decisions, today and every day. |
| economic damages expert witness: Essays in Conveyancing and Property Law in Honour of Professor Robert Rennie Frankie McCarthy, James Chalmers, Stephen Bogle, 2015-05-11 Professor Robert Rennie has been one of the most influential voices in Scots private law over the past thirty years.

Each chapter covers a topic of particular interest to Professor Rennie during his career, from the historical development of property law rules through to the latest developments in conveyancing practice and the evolution of the rules of professional negligence.

Clients rely on their attorneys and advisers to guide them through the process and counsel them toward a positive outcome. Those professionals will find that M&A accounting arbitrations carry a range of distinctions that require a specialized knowledge base to navigate correctly. This book provides real-world guidance from experts in the field, with invaluable insight for every stage of the process.

| economic damages expert witness: Expert evidence in criminal proceedings in England and Wales Great Britain: Law Commission, 2011-03-22 This project addressed the admissibility of expert evidence in criminal proceedings in England and Wales. Currently, too much expert opinion evidence is admitted without adequate scrutiny because no clear test is being applied to determine whether the evidence is sufficiently reliable to be admitted. Juries may therefore be reaching conclusions on the basis of unreliable evidence, as confirmed by a number of miscarriages of justice in recent years. Following consultation on a discussion paper (LCCP 190, 2009, ISDBN 9780118404655) the Commission recommends that there should be a new reliability-based admissibility test for expert evidence in criminal proceedings. The test would not need to be applied routinely or unnecessarily, but it would be applied in appropriate cases and it would result in the exclusion of unreliable expert opinion evidence. Under the test, expert opinion evidence would not be admitted unless it was adjudged to be sufficiently reliable to go before a jury. The draft Criminal Evidence (Experts) Bill published with the report (as Appendix A) sets out the admissibility test and also provides the guidance judges would need when applying the test, setting out the key reasons why an expert's opinion evidence might be unreliable. The Bill also codifies (with slight modifications) the uncontroversial aspects of the present law, so that all the admissibility requirements for expert evidence would be set out in a single Act of Parliament and carry equal authority. |

Nicole Wilson, 2010-09-28 This second edition of Measuring Nonuse Damages Using Conjoint Valuation is essentially a reprint of a 1992 monograph that has been in steady demand since its original appearance. The RTI Press edition, which is intended to meet continued inquiries and requests for the monograph, contains a Foreword and a Preface to the second edition that put the original work into historical perspective. These studies of ways to value stated preferences, as applied then to the Exxon Valdez oil spill, continue to be a timely and still-rigorous examination of such methods; even with the passage of time and statistical advances from the past two decades, the conclusions and insights as to whether and how these techniques might still be employed in valuing use or nonuse losses from similar events remain valid. |
| economic damages expert witness: Medical Malpractice Litigation Bernard S. Black, David A. Hyman, Myungho Paik, William M. Sage, Charles Silver, 2021-04-27 Drawing on an unusually rich trove of data, the authors have refuted more politically convenient myths in one book than most academics do in a lifetime. —Nicholas Bagley, professor of law, University of Michigan Law School Synthesizing decades of their own and others’ research on medical liability, the authors unravel what we know and don’t know about our medical malpractice system, why neither patients nor doctors are being rightly served, and what economics can teach us about the path forward. —Anupam B. Jena, Harvard Medical School Over the past 50 years, the United States experienced three major medical malpractice crises, each marked by dramatic increases in the cost of malpractice liability insurance. These crises fostered a vigorous politicized debate about the causes of the premium spikes, and the impact on access to care and defensive medicine. State legislatures responded to the premium spikes by enacting damages caps on non-economic, punitive, or total damages and Congress has periodically debated the merits of a federal cap on damages. However, the intense political debate has been marked by a shortage of evidence, as well as misstatements and overclaiming. The public is confused about answers to some basic questions. What caused the premium spikes? What effect did tort reform actually have? Did tort reform reduce frivolous litigation? Did tort reform actually improve access to health care or reduce defensive medicine? Both sides in the debate have strong opinions about these matters, but their positions are mostly talking points or are based on anecdotes. Medical Malpractice Litigation provides factual answers to these and other questions about the performance of the med mal system. The authors, all experts in the field and from across the political spectrum, provide an accessible, fact-based response to the questions ordinary Americans and policymakers have about the performance of the med mal litigation system. |

| economic damages expert witness: Loss of Housekeeping Capacity Ernst Karner, Ken Oliphant, Bjarte Askeland, 2012 Liability law is rapidly changing in quite a number of countries. This is due to various factors, which are interrelated to a large extent: changing case law and legislation as well as increased and still increasing technical and medical knowledge. As a result, various occupational diseases can, for example, be attributed to working conditions or personal injury to specific products. From the very moment that causation can be proven, the question arises of whether or not liability can be established- with far-reaching economic consequences for all parties involved. The rise of phenomena such as mass torts, multiple causation, joint and several liability or various heads of damages (like ecological damage and several diseases and affections) rapidly increases the interest in tort law. In the context of the interrelation between liability and insurance, attention must be paid to the question of whether certain liabilities are still coverable or not, and, if they are, to what amounts. (The question of jurisdictions is of growing importance as is the question of whether a specific liability can be covered by insurance. In this context, one should bear in mind that the affordability of tort law also requires safe and sound insurers. The recent past has shown that there is a limit to their financial stability.) |
