Market Feasibility & Economic Impact

Adds "Economic Impact." In litigation, proving the loss of potential income or "highest and best use" often relies on economic impact studies.

Translating Financial Models into Defensible Testimony

In complex real estate litigation, proving or disproving a project's financial viability is paramount. A simple spreadsheet isn't testimony; a defensible, rigorous analysis is. We provide expert witness services grounded in decades of real-world development and financial modeling experience.

Our analysis goes beyond academic theory. As a Registered Architect and developer with an MBA in Real Estate Finance, Jay DeVore has built the actual pro formas and financial models used to secure funding and build successful projects. We don't just review a model; we pressure-test its core assumptions against real-world market and construction constraints.

Our Economic Analysis Delivers Clarity on:

  • Pro Forma & Cash Flow Analysis: We dissect and model project costs, revenue streams, and absorption rates to determine realistic financial outcomes.
  • Economic Damage Calculations: We provide a clear, quantifiable, and defensible opinion on economic damages resulting from contract breaches, delays, or property takings.
  • Market Viability: We analyze whether a proposed project was ever truly supported by market fundamentals, rebutting speculative or flawed assumptions.
  • Construction & Capital Stacks: Our experience as a developer allows us to credibly analyze the feasibility of a project's hard costs, soft costs, and proposed capital structure.

Why Our Testimony is Different

We are "bilingual in business and litigation". We don't just present data; we build a narrative that a judge and jury can understand. We connect complex financial concepts—like internal rate of return (IRR) and net present value (NPV)—directly to the core legal questions of your case.

This service is critical for:

  • Contract & Partnership Disputes
  • Economic Damage Claims
  • Eminent Domain (Valuation)
  • Construction Defect Cases (Lost Revenue)
