Lost Earnings in Lee's Summit

Past and future lost earnings and fringe benefits for a person whose injury has removed them from work or reduced what they can earn. The analysis builds from the earnings history, projects the but-for path over the person's expected worklife with wage growth, and discounts the future stream to present value. When the person can still work in a reduced capacity, the loss is framed as diminished earning capacity, with the post-injury path drawn from a vocational opinion or the treating record and offset against the but-for projection.

Our economists measure lost earnings, fringe benefits, and post-injury earning capacity against wage data for the Lee's Summit area and the plaintiff's own records, and are familiar with the court system and disclosure requirements that affect lost earnings engagements in Missouri.
