Employment Litigation

Providing a testifying economic expert for your employment litigation case

TEG quantifies economic losses associated with wrongful discharge, age and gender discrimination, failure to promote, and other employment-related matters. We consider back-pay and front-pay losses (including fringe benefits), as well as taxation gross-ups and offsets from plaintiff's duty to mitigate. We stand ready to testify about wage loss analysis cases in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and other court venues.

Liability Phase:

We have substantial expertise in discrimination litigation and in the use of powerful statistical tools to evaluate discrimination and wrongful discharge claims. This statistical analysis of discrimination may be able to help your case. We pride ourselves on sound statistical modeling and on the clear and understandable presentation of our work to counsel and juries. Our high-quality work extends to statistical and economic testimony, responding to motions for class certification in employment discrimination cases, considering whether any statistical claims are artifacts of the model and critically evaluating the methodology the opposing expert has used. We also assist attorneys in the interpretation, development and response to discovery requests and other subpoenas.

Damages Issues:

The damages portion of an employment matter requires careful appraisal of lost earnings, offsets arising from plaintiff’s duty to mitigate, lost fringe benefits, lost pension benefits, and taxation gross-ups. Other compensation components such as stock options and warrants, and employer stock contributions can be complex and can easily become contentious. Moreover, the particularities of state and federal case law, administrative agencies and statutory requirements in various court venues can be daunting. But it is in precisely these settings where the experience of Tinari Economics Group experts gives our clients a competitive edge. For over twenty-five years we have been offering quality service to our clients. We readily assist in legal strategy and closely coordinate our tasks with you to thoroughly evaluate the damages portion of your complaint or defense.

Workplace Practices:

Hiring, promotion, compensation, and termination practices may require an economist to consider civil rights, discrimination, regulations, and salary levels in determining whether a business complies with standard industry-wide procedures. Employers rely on our evaluations and recommendations to avoid potential legal exposure in proposed reductions in force, in creating affirmative action programs, and in setting goals for the future.
