Valuations and Damages
Defensible calculations that combine robust, empirical processes with compelling expert argumentation.
Delivering the optimum dispute resolution to clients can depend largely on defending the accuracy and fairness of a valuation or damage quantum. FRA’s extensive involvement with high value, data-driven calculations in disputes as well as regulatory matters means our experts are clear on what data to look for, how to feed that data into the right models, and are able to communicate that process simply and persuasively.
How we can help
FRA experts have decades of experience valuing companies, projects and contracts. We leverage this experience to provide a practical approach to valuation and damages that we have successfully employed for early case assessment, settlement negotiations, and reports or testimony at trial or arbitration.
Specialist insight into financial and accounting data
Our leading investigative expertise and specialist knowledge of financial documents, controls and processes means we know what data we need to look for to draw the right insight (e.g. calculating profit or loss to date or in future, studying the impact of market conditions, proving wrongdoing or causation, testing financial data to challenge assumptions).
From the assessment of evidence and identification of realistic scenarios, through to clear and concise explanations in written reports or testimony, our defensible methods and experts’ reputations in their field help lawyers make the most accurate and defensible case for the client. Furthermore, FRA’s one-firm model offers our clients access to experts from any of our global locations, ensuring the best match of relevant experience and skillset for each matter.
Independent, objective experts
In addition to our track record with litigation and arbitration, our experts have also calculated disgorgement and ability-to-pay arguments to resolve some of the highest profile regulatory matters. Experts across our global locations have experience presenting to authorities and working with them as independent consultants. As a result, they are well trained to assess both quantitative evidence and arguments through the eyes of a neutral authority.
Collaborative advisers
Where our empirical approach calls for collaboration with industry or economic experts, we have experience working effectively with such experts and counsel to enhance our models and calculations in view of company-, industry- or market-specific considerations.
