Advertising Claims Support
Our team specializes in designing and conducting claim substantiation research. Advertising Claims Support research differs significantly from traditional market and survey research. Surveys designed for advertising claim substantiation must follow distinct standards and guidelines compared to other survey types. These standards cover various aspects, including selecting consumer participants, sourcing and preparing products, formulating questions, analyzing data, and reporting results.
Expert Witnessing
Our expert witnessing services provide support across a wide range of legal venues including National Advertising Division (NAD) and National Advertising Review Board (NARB) hearings, bench trials, jury trials, and arbitrations. We have testified in both the U.S. and Canadian legal systems.
In addition to delivering expert testimony, we assist our clients with all aspects of legal proceedings, ensuring they are well-prepared for depositions, cross-examinations, and other key stages of litigation. Our team has substantial experience being deposed and appearing in both bench and jury trials, giving us a strong understanding of the challenges that can arise during legal proceedings.
Whether representing clients in high-stakes commercial litigation or specialized regulatory matters, we provide clear, credible, and objective testimony that is designed to withstand rigorous scrutiny in court. Our experts are adept at simplifying complex issues, making technical concepts accessible to judges, juries, and arbitrators.
By engaging our expert witnessing services, clients benefit from a comprehensive and professional approach that supports their case, enhances their legal strategy, and contributes to a favorable outcome.
