Dispute analysis & expert testimony

No company enters into an agreement expecting to become embroiled in a dispute. But conflicts do happen. Complex civil litigation requires the insight and experience of people who understand how to interpret companies’ books, records, and financial documents. PwC provides business and financial advice to lawyers and their clients for matters of crisis or dispute. Our work often requires us to provide expert testimony at depositions, trials, and arbitrations.

You might need an independent damage loss quantification of a breach of contract, business interruption through natural disaster or individual negligence, major insurance claim, or third-party liability, or to gain insight into cost-sharing or other financial dealings under disputed cooperative agreements.

Or you might need to determine the effect of accounting adjustments for a merger or acquisition post-closing disagreement, or help in determining damages from patent, trademark, or copyright infringement or trade secret misappropriation.

Perhaps you need local business and accounting knowledge to investigate and analyse a claim in another country, or you need to quantify closely held business interests in a shareholder/partner or third-party dispute.
