We have extensive experience in developing and applying economic and financial models to analyze and quantify alleged complex damages.

The analysis of damages in complex litigation generally requires the establishment of causality between the contested actions and the alleged damages, as well as the estimation of the prices that would have prevailed, the volumes that would have been sold, the profits that would have been obtained, the commercial value that would have been achieved or other results that would have occurred in the absence of the alleged violations.

In addition to common sense, evaluation is a complex process that requires a combination of fundamental analysis and industry experience.

Escrow Agent

Escrow deposits are increasingly used in commercial transactions, as a guarantee of verification and compliance with certain assumptions, which have been agreed between the parties, namely in the drafting of contracts and agreements signed by them. These escrow deposits are placed with a credit institution and are released, for one or other part of the transaction, provided that the associated assumptions are verified.

    As a result of our past experience, both in M&A processes and in Due Diligence and Commercial Disputes, we fully understand the challenges to which an Escrow Agent is subject. In a large number of cases, the non-existence of Escrow Agents leads to erroneous decisions being made or backed up by “expressly” ambiguous, complex and too generalistic rules or conditions leading to situations contrary to the initial spirit of the settlement and, consequently, new litigation cases.

     

    We are confident that we can play a key role in these processes, independent, impartial and qualified, that we can interpret the spirit and nature of the contract, that we understand deeply the rationale and impact of the rules and conditions associated, deciding whether or not the assumptions and conditions agreed between the parties are met. This decision is then communicated to the escrow bank which executes the release of the escrow amounts accordingly.
