Fulcrum’s personnel often serve as the “expert witness” to present economic damages calculations in complex commercial litigation. Such damages may include lost profits, disgorgement or unjust enrichment, reasonable royalty, loss of business value, loss of goodwill, lost income, or other measurements. This assistance is needed because of the complexity of damages calculations, the need to explain conclusions simply and persuasively, and the credibility and independence that only a highly credentialed outside witness can provide. Fulcrum’s damages experts draw from accounting, economics, finance, appraisal, statistics, and other quantitative science backgrounds.
Even when testimony is not required, outside financial advisors are often necessary because most commercial litigation requires a large effort in a short period. Internal resources may be busy with the ongoing business, and may not have the specialized training necessary to efficiently or appropriately support the litigation plan.
