Whether you are seeking them on behalf of your client or opposing the other side’s demand, economic damages are the heart of business litigation. These damages can be challenging to quantify and even more challenging to present to a judge or jury with no understanding of business. This program will discuss the types of potential damages such as lost profits, lost business opportunities, diminished stock value, harm to reputation, etc., that require a particular kind of proof to go beyond speculation; as well as strategies for presenting these types of damages, or their antidote to the factfinder in an engaging way.
Learning Objectives:
1. The types of damages that might be available for your client and how to value them;
2. How to develop the proof you need to obtain these damages or to defend against them; and
3. How to present your damage position in an engaging way, including how to visually present abstract concepts in a concrete way.
