Samples

What the reports look like

Each sample is a complete memo on an illustrative matter: bottom line first, tables and charts, sensitivity, method, and the limits stated rather than buried. Facts and figures are invented; the structure is exactly what you receive.

Disparate impact in a reduction in force

Age-based selection analysis: standard-deviation tests, the four-fifths screen, logistic regression with the employer's rebuttal factors, and where the argument turns.

Read the sample

Pay equity regression

Gender pay gap across six specifications, quantile regression, Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition, tainted-variable analysis of job level, and exposure under each side's framing.

Read the sample

Class certification statistics

Off-the-clock wage claim: stratified sampling plan, commonality diagnostics across 46 stores, aggregate damages with a confidence interval, and the de minimis sensitivity.

Read the sample

Lost-earnings projection

Back pay from documents, front pay under three duration scenarios, work-life and attrition adjustment, and the one fact that decides which scenario applies.

Read the sample

Rebuttal of an opposing expert

Defense-side review of a promotion-disparity report: eligibility pool, aggregation, clustering and coding, with what survives correction and what does not.

Read the sample

Comparable-case benchmark

Appeal-or-settle: reversal rates in comparable Ninth Circuit Title VII appeals, a validated model estimate with an interval, timing, and the one argument that moves the odds most.

Describe the matter

Two paragraphs are enough. You will receive a fixed quote and conflict check within one business day. Nothing you send is shared; NorthLaw will sign your firm's NDA on request.

Do not include privileged documents at this stage; a description is enough for a quote.
