Litigation Consulting

Quant Economics provides expert economic analysis for litigation and related disputes. Our work is distinguished by superior analytics coupled with clear communication. We provide services in a variety of litigation areas including intellectual property and technology, antitrust and unfair competition, and other commercial litigation.

Quant Economics utilizes qualitative investigation and quantitative techniques to evaluate competitive issues and measure economic damages. This often involves recasting the companies and markets involved to reflect the absence of alleged conduct such as patent infringement or unfair competition. Actual economic performance of sales, prices, costs, and profits can then be contrasted with the economic performance that would have prevailed but for the alleged conduct, thereby quantifying the effect of the conduct. Similarly, we use established economic techniques to accurately determine reasonable royalty rates in patent infringement litigation.

Superior analytics alone are not sufficient in a litigation setting. Effective communication often requires detailed reports that carefully articulate our methodology and results with charts, tables, and concise exposition. At trial, we combine lucid speech with demonstrative exhibits to successfully communicate to judge and jury. In addition to providing economic analysis in a testifying capacity, Quant Economics also provides support as consulting experts. In this role we focus on discovery and critical analyses to facilitate dispute resolution.
