Conclusion
This practice aid provides the practitioner with a discussion of the theoretical, legal, economic, and
accounting foundations of intellectual property and the methodologies commonly employed in the
calculation of infringement damages. Notably, the U.S. courts continue to award damages in intellectual
property cases under a variety of theories and analyses, giving the damages expert freedom to explore
the economic consequences of the infringing activity. As in calculating damages under any civil cause of
action, the expert should carefully consider the facts and circumstances of the dispute at hand and work
with client’s legal counsel to understand the relevant case law and jurisdictional requirements.
