Quantification of Business Interruption Losses
G.E.Y. Consulting has years of experience gathering appropriate documentation, reviewing, analyzing, and quantifying a broad variety of business interruption claims due to fire, flooding, power outages, structural damage, civil action, etc. Whether a 1st party property, 3rd party liability, or subrogation claim, G.E.Y. Consulting will work directly with the claimant and/or the claimant's representative to gather sufficient relevant records and other information to accurately estimate business income losses and other related damages.Quantification of Commercial Equipment Down Time Losses
G.E.Y. Consulting has evaluated hundreds of commercial vehicle and equipment down time claims. From trucks to taxis, construction equipment to communication vans, medical diagnostic to manufacturing equipment, and loaders to limousines, you can count on us to draw from our depth and breadth of experience to arrive at a reasonable approach to valuing a "down time" claim - using either actual lost net income or another widely recognized methodology.Small Business/Self-Employed Loss of Income
Usually arising as a result of a personal injury to a key employee of a small business or a self-employed individual, G.E.Y. Consulting has extensive experience in quantifying likely NET losses to a small business or self-employed person. Whether the loss arises from lost sales, canceled contracts, replacement labor expense, etc., we have the expertise to identify relevant records needed to evaluate both past and future losses while also accounting for other relevant facts and circumstances surrounding the claim and the claimant's business/industry.Lost Income Due To Personal Injury
In addition to self-employed loss of income due to personal injury, G.E.Y. Consulting has been engaged to evaluate losses due to personal injury for employees of companies wherein the employee's compensation structure is complex due to factors such as variable commission earnings, union contracts, shift pay differential/overtime premium, etc.Past & Future Economic Damages
Whether the claim for economic damages is due to long-term/permanent disability or death, G.E.Y. Consulting can evaluate the present value of potential past/future net economic losses sustained under various plausible assumptions.Extraordinary Expense Review
Damage claims are sometimes comprised of substantial extraordinary expenses - often including 'internal' company costs that contain substantial overhead allocations. G.E.Y. Consulting can sort through each line item of a particular extraordinary expense claim - identifying actual out of pocket expenses vs. overhead allocations - and evaluating the reasonableness of the internal overhead costs allocated and the support for such allocations.Opposing Expert Report Review
G.E.Y. Consulting has provided numerous reviews of opposing expert economic loss reports for clients - even when a client chooses not to name their own expert. Our experience can provide valuable insight into the strengths and weaknesses of an opposing expert's report - even when a client does not require a formal written independent evaluation from G.E.Y. Consulting.Financial Records Review
Even when a client does not require a formal written independent evaluation from G.E.Y. Consulting, we can review the financial records submitted in support of a particular case to evaluate their relevance, reliability, completeness, consistency, etc.Expert Witness Testimony
Ronald E. Cotter, CPA, owner and sole employee of G.E.Y. Consulting, has been called upon to provide expert witness testimony, both through deposition and in trial, on multiple occasions over the years. Whether G.E.Y. Consulting is engaged to perform review and analysis for a case already in litigation - or a case that does not go to litigation for several years hence - you can count on Mr. Cotter to always defend his work through expert testimony when requested by a client.
