Improving litigation strategy with data analytics
Report Investigation
We examine client's and opponent's expert reports.
We subject expert reports to intense numerical scrutiny, determining their merits, weaknesses, logical inconsistencies, and biases. Our expertise in report analysis has been gained through years of examining, reviewing, and critiquing expert government and scientific reviews, reports and papers.
We test and evaluate the validity of the assumptions and data sources employed in expert reports. We reverse engineer methods that are not explicitly stated in the reports, revealing evidence that can be critical to the case. Where we discover flaws, exaggerations, or biases, we evaluate the results against those that would be obtained when calculations are performed correctly.
Our in depth analysis has previously revealed discrepancies and areas of contention which were strategically leveraged in cross-examination and critical to case wins.
Standard Analysis
We investigate the evidence
We transform client objectives into logical frameworks.
We assess the numerical strengths and weaknesses of case theory against the data.
Our methods allow multiple case theories to be evaluated early in the litigation process.
Our code-based approach ensures our analysis is transparent and reproducible, and can be rapidly updated in light of new evidence.
Our data analytics expertise can help litigators stay abreast of advances in data analytics and modelling.
Through statistical modelling we can identify key aspects of the data that may not be apparent to litigators and that counsel can build into case theory.
Our products include the following:
Established and cutting-edge statistical and machine-learning algorithms to extract insights from case data.
Our modelling expertise encompasses statistical modelling, classification models, machine learning, time-series modelling, and modelling with geo-spatial data.
Investigation of client and opponent machine code
Document Web-scraping
Automated document analysis using Optical Character Recognition
Numerical specialisations: compelling data visualisation
We make extensive use of data visualisation to bridge the gap between data experts and non-experts.
We transform trends and patterns in the evidence into a compelling narrative that conveys the significance of the information.
Our visualisation methods can allow client, counsel, and the court to quickly grasp the implications of the data for the case.
Our data visualization allows us to identify relationships in the case data that are challenging to discern in its’ raw form.
Our visual presentations can be better retained than textual or tabular data, leading to improved recall and understanding of the case.
Numerical specialisations: investigating machine code
Our theoretical and coding expertise has been developed through years of coding research and application.
Our analysis of client and opponent machine code can illuminate company and corporation decision-making procedures and structures.
We rigourously test the machine code used by the client or opponent, determining whether the code operates in the way the client or opponent claims it does.
Clear and consise communications to counsel & client
We tailor our communications to accommodate the comprehension levels of client, counsel and the court.
We can coach counsel on the numerical strengths and weaknesses of the case, enabling the preparation of effective cross-examination of expert witnesses.
Regular communications with counsel on the progress of the analysis to promote a collaborative working relationship with counsel.
We support our oral communications with informal written explanations and comprehensive formal expert reports.
Deep Analysis
We act as the expert witness for the case
We provide expert reports founded on scientific expertise.
We transform client objectives into logical frameworks.
We conduct a comprehensive investigation of the relevant data sources.
Investigating client and opponent data and machine code, we prepare a meticulously examined expert report in support of the client’s case. We build a compelling report through compelling data visualisation.
Our systematic code-based approach ensures each step of the analysis is reproducible and transparent, facilitating the communication of our methods and conclusions with counsel and client.
We clearly detail the methodologies employed in the numerical analysis, providing a transparent understanding of the approach taken supported by citations in the relevant literature.
Our analysis uses advanced statistical models and algorithms tailored to the case data.
We incorporate data visualization to represent numerical findings, aiding in the comprehension of complex statistical relationships and patterns.
Our work incorporates sensitivity analyses on key variables, providing evidence on the robustness of the analysis and identifying the impact of these variables on numerical outcomes.
Our skill in oral presentation can serve as a solid foundation for compelling expert testimony in court.
Overall, we ensure that our data-driven expert testimonies, are comprehensive, supported by relevant theory, and are well-documented, providing a solid foundation for legal arguments and facilitating the admissibility of evidence in court.
