Why May & Company forensic decisioneering?

May & Company Forensic Decisioneering provides forensic decision analysis and litigation support exclusively for law firms and in-house legal teams. Our work is purpose-built for matters where analytical defensibility, expert reliability, and methodological rigor are critical.

We are not a general consulting firm that occasionally supports litigation.
We are legal-only by design, operating at the intersection of forensic analysis, economic reasoning, and complex legal disputes.

Every engagement is structured around a single standard:
Will this analysis withstand scrutiny in an adversarial legal environment?

Unlike large multidisciplinary consulting firms, May & Company works solely with law firms and corporate legal departments. We do not provide commercial advisory services, operational consulting, or audit-adjacent work.

This legal-only focus ensures:

• Independence from commercial conflicts
   
• Alignment with litigation strategy
   
• Credibility under expert and evidentiary review
   
• No dilution of forensic or analytical standards
   

Our clients rely on us when independence, clarity, and defensibility matter more than breadth of services.

We apply Forensic Decisioneering, a structured analytical methodology designed for complex litigation, regulatory exposure, and disputed economic or operational issues.

Our approach integrates:

• Decision science and structured reasoning
   
• Financial, economic, and operational analysis
   
• Transparent assumptions and traceable logic
   
• Documentation aligned with legal standards
   

The result is analysis that is testable, explainable, and resilient under challenge—not optimized for executive summaries, but for legal examination.

In litigation and regulatory matters, insight alone is insufficient. 

Analysis must be:

• Methodologically sound
   
• Reliant on accepted principles
   
• Clearly articulated and reproducible
   
• Suitable for expert reliance and testimony
   

Our work is developed with Daubert-level scrutiny in mind and structured to support motions, reports, and expert opinions without reliance on opaque or proprietary black-box models.

All engagements are senior-led, with direct involvement from experienced forensic and decision-analysis professionals.

Legal teams are never left guessing:

• Why a methodology was selected
   
• How assumptions were formed
   
• Where data limitations exist
   
• How conclusions were reached
   

This transparency strengthens credibility, accelerates attorney alignment, and reduces risk during deposition, cross-examination, or judicial review.

May & Company Forensic Decisioneering supports matters involving:

• Complex commercial litigation
   
• Economic and financial damages analysis
   
• Regulatory and compliance-exposed decisions
   
• High-risk operational or financial disputes
   
• Situations where outcomes affect precedent, valuation, or reputation
   

We function as a strategic analytical partner to counsel, integrating seamlessly with litigation teams and case strategy.

Our process is designed for how lawyers actually work, not consulting delivery cycles.

• Responsive to litigation timelines
   
• Adaptable as theories evolve
   
• Disciplined in documentation and version control
   
• Precise under compressed deadlines
   

We understand that legal matters are dynamic—and our analysis evolves without compromising rigor or defensibility.

Many firms can analyze data.
Few design analysis specifically for legal challenge.

May & Company Forensic Decisioneering exists to support decisions that must endure opposition, examination, and consequence.

Because in legal matters, being right is not enough.
The analysis must be defensible.
