It’s not just financial experts who are adding personal injury economic damages calculations as a key skill and part of their practice today, as the number of personal injury and other economic damages claims continue to grow. Attorneys are increasingly finding they can save time and money by doing an initial economic damages calculation themselves before they hire an expert. One reason they can do these assessments is simply to decide if a case is worth their while at a much lower cost than hiring an expert to determine that.
Not only is the economic damages calculation field growing and on the verge of a potentially huge boom driven by COVID-19 crisis—indicating a higher future case load for attorneys—there are plenty of resources to help attorneys as well as financial experts quickly get up to speed performing these types of damages analysis.
