Vocational Experts
Assess individuals regarding their pre-injury and post-injury work skills and interests to determine whether there are viable employment options to pursue. They analyze the current job market and determine whether their clients have the ability to perform in available positions. By comparing past earnings to what (if any) employment potential presently exists, vocational experts are able to determine loss of earnings for the future.
PhD Economists
Provide expert analysis and testimony regarding economic damages incurred due to injury or illness. This may include calculating the present value of future medical expenses, household services, and lost earnings, as well as the impact of economic factors on these damages. When individuals are facing years of monetary impact due to injuries, our expert economists are essential in calculating what the true financial burden will be over time.
