Expert reports

Reports state the methodology, findings, and opinions clearly, are structured to meet Federal Rule of Evidence 702 and applicable state standards, and include Rule 26-compliant disclosures for civil matters. Every opinion is tied to the underlying records and prepared to withstand cross-examination.

Evidentiary hearings & Daubert challenges

We support counsel through pretrial motions, Daubert and Shreck hearings, and other admissibility challenges, whether you're defending the reliability of an analysis or challenging the other side's. That includes technical briefings, declarations, and hearing testimony.
