Class Actions
Innovative analyses of the economic issues in class actions.
CRA professionals have provided economic advice and testimony in a number of high-stakes class action cases. This experience includes analysis of class certification issues, liability, aggregate and individual class damages, injunctive relief, and settlement distribution issues. CRA also has a broad range of experience in class action matters involving fraud, product liability, and securities. We apply cutting-edge econometric techniques, simulations, and economic theory to complex economic questions, and present results in expert reports, oral presentations, depositions, and trial testimony that are readily understood by both economists and non-economists.
