Seeking Damages for Lost Profits

Lost Profits Attorney - Have you lost business profits solely from the acts of another?

Unfortunately, business contracts sometimes end in dispute. Sometimes those disputes are resolved quickly and with minimal damages. Other times, a contract dispute can cause a business to fail completely. If you are facing a profit loss because of the breach or carelessness of another, I can help. Contact The Perrin Law Firm to talk to a knowledgeable future damages lawyer.

Anatomy of a Profit Loss Case

A profit loss lawsuit is not your average breach of contract case. First, the burden of proof is higher. To meet it, you need an attorney with the knowledge and resources to meet that burden.

I work closely with my clients. In order to help them prevail, I ask a lot of questions. I acquire an intimate understanding of their trade and their business model. I ask about the business's history. I employ various experts and valuators. A CPA helps me reconstruct the company's earnings and overhead before and after the damage occurred. I also use statisticians and economists to help me determine what the market was doing at the time the damages occurred.

With their help, and the assistance of my client, I use the data to construct a model of where the business was before the breach, and where it was financially after the breach occurred. The object is to demonstrate that, but for the damages, the business would have achieved its goals.

Depending on the size of the case, a loss profit breach can be an enormous undertaking. Not every attorney has the ability or resources to conduct them. I do.
