Expert Testimony & Economic Damages Assessments
When someone experiences a loss of income, earning potential, or support due to injury, death, or financial disruption, an economic damages assessment paired with expert testimony provides the foundation for resolving the case. At McEntire Advisory, we provide expert-level financial assessments and expert testimony to help quantify these losses with clarity and credibility.
Our team supports attorneys, businesses, and individuals navigating a wide range of financial disputes, including personal injury claims, wrongful death claims, employment cases, and commercial matters involving lost earnings or services. Whether you’re preparing for trial, mediation, or arbitration, we deliver well-documented, defensible damages models tailored to the needs of your case.
What We Provide
We offer a full range of economic damages assessments tailored to the needs of each case. Some of the support we provide includes:
- Lost earnings analysis for individuals in injury or employment disputes
- Earning capacity projections based on occupation, education, or health limitations
- Household services valuation in domestic and family-related claims
- Support loss calculations in wrongful death claims
- Expert testimony to support or rebut damages in litigation
- Consulting services for attorneys evaluating exposure or strategy in a personal injury claim
- Damage modeling for economic losses tied to employment or contract disputes
Our work is grounded in economic modeling, real-world data, and clear documentation — all presented in a way that supports expert testimony and strategic decision-making.
Who We Serve
We work with plaintiff and defense attorneys, claimants, and business clients in cases involving:
- Personal injury claims
- Wrongful death claims
- Employment law (e.g., wrongful termination, discrimination, contract breach)
- Commercial disputes with personal economic loss components
- Disputes involving lost wages, benefits, or personal services
We also support law firms and corporate legal departments managing multiple related cases, including mass torts or class actions involving economic loss. Our experience with large datasets and complex modeling allows us to scale our work appropriately while maintaining clarity and consistency.
For clients navigating overlapping personal, commercial, or employment-related claims, we ensure our damage assessments are coordinated across contexts and easy to integrate into broader legal strategies. From one-time disputes to ongoing legal needs, we’re equipped to provide economic insight that supports both individual case outcomes and long-term litigation planning.
Whether you need support for a plaintiff claim, a defense strategy, or behind-the-scenes consulting, we provide credible economic insight supported by professional reporting and, when needed, experienced expert testimony.
When to Engage an Expert
The earlier you bring in a damages expert, the more strategic value we can provide. We can help you:
- Assess case scope
- Guide discovery requests
- Develop initial damages models
- Respond to opposing expert testimony
- Refine calculations as the case evolves
Early involvement also allows us to flag potential gaps in documentation or assumptions. We can recommend relevant records, help shape interrogatories, and align damage modeling with both legal strategy and evolving case facts. This proactive approach reduces surprises and supports more accurate, credible outcomes, especially in complex cases.
Our process is flexible — from full expert designation to behind-the-scenes consulting. We can provide summary calculations for mediation or full reports with detailed assumptions, methodologies, and citations.
