Newly-updated and revised with the latest information on issues and developments in the field, the Third Edition covers current environments, the process itself, different types of cases, proving damages and practical considerations of court appearances, and even the way rapidly developing technology has affected the practice of litigation services. In addition to addressing important developments affecting the accounting practice, the book examines issues raised when calculating both prejudgment and postjudgment interest on damage awards as well as relevant statutes and interest rates on damages.
