Damages analysis grounded in operations
Hospitality Lost Profits & Economic Damages
A hospitality damages opinion is only as sound as its assumptions about demand, capacity, pricing, labor, food and beverage costs, seasonality, capital, and management. Mr. Gorodesky evaluates the financial record in the context of how the business actually operated—and how it could reasonably have been expected to perform.
Questions the analysis addresses
From the claim to the operating evidence.
- What portion of the claimed loss is attributable to the event at issue?
- Do the revenue and margin assumptions reflect the property’s actual capacity and operating model?
- How should seasonality, ramp-up, competition, management performance, and market conditions be treated?
- Are avoided costs, mitigation, and operational constraints reflected consistently?
