Description

Formulas for Calculating Damages 2nd Edition Mark Guralnick ISBN 9781641054607

What is the value of a deceased individual, a victim’s injuries, or a contaminated water well? Formulas for Calculating Damages draws on law, accounting, economics, and statistics to provide a comprehensive set of formulas designed to professionalize legal practice, enhance the quality of client advice, and present damages cases with clarity and precision.

These formulas are versatile: they can be used to estimate case value informally, support settlement negotiations or mediations, or prove damages at trial. Beyond litigation, they also assist in a wide range of professional and business decisions, such as evaluating whether to accept a case, hire an employee or contractor, or sell a business.

Across 20 chapters, Formulas for Calculating Damages covers essential rules and strategies—including calculating interest, measuring probabilities, understanding key rates of return, and applying financial ratios. The book introduces foundational formulas and demonstrates their application across major practice areas, including personal injury and wrongful death, business disputes, employment law, real estate, environmental law, bankruptcy, intellectual property, and family law. The final chapter offers an in-depth discussion on retaining forensic experts and best practices for using them strategically.

This second edition includes significant updates, featuring new Chapter 4, Speed Math, Estimation, and Memorization, and Chapter 19, Admiralty and Aviation Law Damages, expanding the scope and practical utility of this essential resource.
