Business Disputes
Huron’s experienced business disputes professionals provide support for leading law firms and corporations on some of the largest and most complex litigation in the country. We are called on when companies are confronted with situations that demand expert analysis of business information that goes far beyond a company's day-to-day capabilities.
Huron's success in the disputes arena arises out of three key capabilities:
- Astute investigation and analysis applied to electronic and paper-based business documents and data;
- Compelling and convincing presentation of findings from complex investigations and analyses; and
- Efficient and effective management of the processes needed to perform detailed investigations, compile the data, produce the analyses, and deliver the testimonies.
Huron's success in delivering compelling and convincing expert testimony arises from our ability to mobilize directly relevant experience and the highest level of authoritative expertise to meet your needs. Our deep and broad bench includes Ph.D. economists, CPAs, MBAs, accredited valuation specialists, statisticians, forensic accountants, technology specialists, and business strategists with experience that cuts across virtually every industry sector.
A component of Huron's distinctive strength in analysis and investigation arises from its use of technology. Our specialists are able to execute a full range of computer forensic activities, including electronic discovery, data mining and analysis, and electronic evidence retrieval and recovery.
