EARNING
CAPACITY ASSESSMENTS Highly
individualized loss of Earning Capacity Assessments (ECA),
with detailed footnotes explaining every aspect (makes your
job a snap)
|
Forensic
vocational assessment (i.e., personal injury or divorce) |
These
carefully constructed, report attachments range from 3-8 pages
long, depending on number of scenarios. They include some or
all of the following tables: (a) published earnings associated
with pre-injury occupations, (b) pre-injury earnings according
to tax records, (c) published earnings associated with demonstrated
post-injury transferable work skills without additional training,
(d) published earnings associated with demonstrated post-injury
transferable skills in scenario that includes retraining, (e)
work life estimates, and (f) projection of earnings scenarios
across remaining work life.
|
$500-$2,000
depending on whether you conduct the TSA or we do, and depending
on number of tables and scenarios requested. |

HOUSEHOLD
SERVICES LOSS ASSESSMENT Highly
customized analysis of the value of Household Services (H/S)
losses |
Forensic
vocational assessment |
This
rather complex report attachment yields estimate of the value
of a person's practical household service/s (H/S) losses, and
is based on the framework yielded from two key studies: the
Dollar Value of a Day study (Expectancy Data), and the American
Time Use Study (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics). Among the
tables usually included are the following: (a) estimation of
individual services values based on associated local BLS-OES
figures, (b) year-by-year projection of value of pre-injury
H/S efforts, (c) year-by-year projection of value of post-injury
H/S efforts, and (d) comparison to value of losses when calculated
using quotes from local vendors instead of from associated OES
figures. |
$500-$1,500
depending on whether household service contributions are seen
as having been lost partially or entirely, and on number of
assessment approaches used (local vendors and BLS-OES) |
|

DATABASE
ANALYSES Case-specific
DOT/ employment database analyses (beyond the technical scope
of most rehab practices) |
Work
on ADA cases (i.e., broad class of jobs) |
Where
the impairments in some cases are conducive to use of BLS-defined
worker-trait variables for establishing loss or lack of loss
of access, the impairments in other caeses are not (such as
with loss of ability to reach overhead). Though measurement
of loss of access to occupations can be a clue about
size of a person's vocational loss, it is usually not seen as
being as meaningful or persuasive as measurement of loss of
access to actual jobs. A number of proxies may be employed
to yield persuasive indicators, and these differ substantially
from case to case. |
$500-$5,000
depending on complexity. |

BACKGROUND
RESEARCH |
Literature
research needs |
Initial search is done in our huge inhouse library. If more is needed, quote is given for likely cost to search the major university library databases. Many searches yield 3 or 4 peer-reviewed journal articles (sent as Acrobat documents) per topic with roughly 0.5 hour of billing. Research rates are $125/hr. |
$50-$200
depending on complexity, always with estimate in advance. |
