Overview

Who We Are

Cornerstone Research provides economic and financial consulting and expert testimony in all phases of complex disputes and regulatory investigations.

The firm works with an extensive network of prominent academics and industry practitioners to identify the best-qualified expert for each assignment.

With a reputation for high quality and effectiveness, Cornerstone Research has consistently delivered rigorous, state-of-the-art analysis since 1989.

The firm has more than 1,000 professionals in nine offices across the United States, UK, and EU.

Cornerstone Research is involved in a broad variety of high-profile legal cases and disputes that are often covered on the front pages of business newspapers.

Current matters focus on topics such as capital markets, business and securities valuation, M&A and corporate events, risk management, market competition, high-frequency trading, the impact of marketing on consumers, and patent infringement.

Much of our work rests at the intersection of finance and economics as we evaluate potential mergers, claims of anticompetitive conduct, and the impact of intellectual property infringement.

We also address marketing and economic issues arising in cases with allegations of misleading marketing or false claims.

Much of our work involves qualitative and quantitative analysis, including sophisticated econometrics and cutting-edge data analyses.

More detail can be found on our website : www.cornerstone.com.

Cornerstone Research provides an interesting and rewarding work environment. The firm has grown steadily over more than 35 years, and we maintain a firm culture that is collegial, supportive, friendly, and collaborative.
