The primary objective of most plaintiffs in any litigation matter is to collect money. Very often, however, attorneys focus on establishing liability and do not analyze damages until the end of the case. Our Firm recognizes the importance of analyzing financial damages issues at the beginning of litigation, rather than the end, to ensure that they can meet the standards of proof at trial. The Firm applies its vast experience in financial damages, including lost profits, loss of market capitalization, diminution of stock value, loss of goodwill, and loss of intangible assets such as trademarks and copyrights.
Because of our experience in quantifying financial losses, our Firm is often asked to apply this experience to more than just contact or business tort claims and to handle high net-worth family law disputes, particularly where ownership and valuation of family businesses or investments are at issue. We apply the same principles to personal tort claims, which involve financial and emotional losses and often provide for punitive damages, such as claims for defamation or intentional infliction of emotional distress.
