VLF Consulting, Inc.

Pre-litigation damages assessments.

For some cases, even a ballpark estimate of damages prior to discovery can be difficult. For clients needing insights into the parties’ likely damages positions and magnitude of damages, answers arise through targeted research combined with expert analysis and adherence to the broad set of legal cases surrounding damages.

Intellectual property.
With over 15 years of specialization in intellectual property, VLF Consulting provides clear, robust expert opinions and analyses of damages related to patents, copyrights, trademarks, and other intellectual property.

Business interruption.
Expert analyses and opinions as to the amount of damages due to a business interruption, including the computation of claims for insurance purposes or to rebut a claim already filed.

Economic damages.
Claims for lost profits, price erosion, delayed market entry, or other economic harm require both specialized knowledge as well as extensive experience. VLF Consulting formulates answers at many degrees of complexity, such as (where appropriate) probability trees, sensitivity analyses, flexible models, and Monte Carlo analyses.

Breach of contract.
Monetary damages may arise when a contracted party fails to perform its duties under a contract, such as a sales contract, distribution agreement, non-compete agreement, or other contract. Further, unjust enrichment remedies (an equitable claim) are often sought. VLF Consulting expertly analyzes the facts and financial circumstances of the case and relevant parties, as well as the economic circumstances of the particular industry.
