Services | Natural resources
Natural resource and environmental litigation requires a command of complex economic systems that combine business, government, and natural resource dynamics. OnPoint works with some of the world's finest agricultural and resource economists to model and analyze these systems. Our work product, firmly rooted in a thorough and data-intensive approach, presents an authoritative picture to decision-makers, and gives counsel a definitive advantage in contesting less sophisticated appraisal and valuation approaches.
OnPoint's multidisciplinary team of economists, statisticians, data professionals and analysts combine with our network of consulting and testifying experts to provide world-class experience and expertise to our clients. A broad grasp of natural resource based economic systems gives us a compelling advantage over more narrowly focused experts such as appraisers, engineers and accountants. And our full range of database and analytical support ensures that expert conclusions and opinions are well-founded in the relevant data.
