Event Synopsis:

The headlines are filled with the BP catastrophic oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. BP has even agreed to a damage fund of $20 billion, but what about the other companies involved in the Deep Water Horizon drilling rig, Transocean, Halliburton and others? And what about the businesses that are damaged but their claim is turned down?

Commercial damages is like a three legged stool: the plaintiff has to prove liability, damages and collectability. If one leg is not there, the stool falls over. The reality of a plaintiff’s situation centers on the task of proving to a reasonable certainty all three legs of the stool within the confines of the rules of evidence.
