Regulatory Economics
The Firm has been, and is, intimately involved with the many changes engendered by the regulation and deregulation of the transportation and utility industries. Many of these regulatory changes were, and are, highly problematic to both carriers and shippers. Research performed by L. E. Peabody & Associates, Inc. has been instrumental in the formulation of regulatory and legislative rules and statutes and their application to our clients.
Lost Profits and Damages Calculations
When service level requirements are not met, or a third party's action (or inaction) has caused harm to our clients, there often arises a need for defensible and well supported damage calculations or lost profit calculations. Our Firm has decades of experience developing well supported and documented evidence for litigation purposes.
Contract Disputes
L. E. Peabody & Associates, Inc. is, first and foremost, a Firm which bases analyses and actions upon forces within the marketplace. However, when the logical construct of marketplace economics is not available or fails to compel logical reaction, litigation may offer a viable recourse to ensure that a client's best interests are served.
Antitrust Determinations
Enforcing government regulations meant to prevent monopolistic exploitation requires first establishing that the entity in question has sufficient market power to be subject to regulation. Our Firm has developed the evidence necessary to establish the market dominance of monopolistic entities for hundreds of cases.
