…your report was the catalyst. Although this was never a slam dunk by any stretch once we delivered your report it immediately brought the other side to the negotiating table.

Your article in the March issue of Vue Magazine was very useful. I found your use of examples to demonstrate the difference between various concepts in market research were excellent! They will be valuable in explaining these nuances to our clients.

An expert must demonstrate a number of skills to be effective. Obviously, the expert must have a full understanding of the subject matter being considered. In these Federal Court applications, you clearly demonstrated that you are a leading authority on industry standards in forensic market research. But beyond your impressive knowledge of that subject matter, Dr. Corbin exhibited the characteristics necessary to be an expert witness – impartiality, freedom from conflicts and willingness to understand, appreciate and respect the opinions of other expert witnesses retained by other parties.
