| Details | Learning Objectives
The Financial Forensics
Institute’s litigation consulting training will prepare
practitioners to take on many challenges beyond business
valuation, including personal and commercial damages, breach of
contract, tort and environmental liability,
patent/trademark/copyright/trade secrets infringement, and more.
Given that business valuation services open doors to only 10–15
percent of the financial litigation consulting needs of the
legal profession, the practitioner—meaning you—must have the
broad base of knowledge this training offers if you wish to
build a career niche in litigation consulting.
