A Damages Expert Witness may identify the components included in a claimed amount, examine the records supporting each component, test formulas and assumptions, evaluate relevant time periods, and recalculate amounts under alternative supported scenarios. The appropriate methodology depends on whether the dispute involves earnings, business losses, expenses, property, contractual amounts, or another measurable financial effect.
Damages expertise can encompass different types of measurable monetary loss depending on the claim and subject matter. Economic Damages expertise focuses more specifically on financial-loss methodologies such as lost profits, lost earnings, but-for scenarios, economic forecasts, loss periods, and discounting. When those economic methodologies are central to the dispute, an Economic Damages Expert Witness may provide more specialized analysis.
Financial statements, tax returns, invoices, payroll records, contracts, transaction histories, receipts, repair or replacement records, benefit information, forecasts, business records, and prior damages calculations may support a damages assessment. A Damages Expert Witness may trace claimed amounts to the underlying records and identify assumptions, exclusions, or calculations that materially affect the total.
Future-loss assumptions become important when claimed damages extend beyond amounts already incurred. A Damages Expert Witness may evaluate assumptions concerning duration, future earnings, revenue, expenses, growth, inflation, benefits, discounting, or other relevant factors. Because changes in these assumptions can materially affect a long-term projection, the inputs should be identified, supported, and tested separately.
