Roy Epstein specializes in developing and critiquing proofs of liability and damages for complex cases that require masterful application of economics,
econometric modeling, and financial analysis. His approach combines state-of-the-art academic work in antitrust, intellectual property, and damages with years of experience as a partner with some of the most prominent national litigation support firms.
Dr. Epstein holds a PhD in Economics from Yale University and is Adjunct Professor of Finance at Boston College.
He has served as an economic expert witness and consultant
for leading law firms throughout the US and abroad for nearly 20 years.
He has published and lectured extensively on patent damages, including analysis of the Georgia-Pacific factors, the market share rule for lost profits, and price erosion from patent infringement.
In addition, Dr. Epstein is the inventor, with his coauthor Dan Rubinfeld at UC Berkeley, of the PCAIDS simulation method to analyze potential price effects of mergers.
Prof. James Heckman, winner of the 2000 Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics, has written that Dr. Epstein's insightful approach to econometrics "serves to define a new field of knowledge."

June 2009: Roy J. Epstein was the testifying economic expert for defendant Mack Trucks, Inc. in a Sherman 1 price fixing case tried under the Rule of Reason.
He addressed definition of the relevant market, market power, and damages. A central feature of his testimony was his empirical analysis of a massive
transactional database covering more than 13 years of Mack's sales. The jury in Federal Court in Philadelphia returned a verdict of no liability and
completely exonerated Mack. The case was Toledo Mack Sales and Service v. Mack Trucks.
