These variables drive the full value calculations below and update all figures instantly. For cases requiring greater precision, assumptions can be individualized by person or by day.
| Average Off the Clock Hours Per Week | |
| Count of Average Weekly Missed Meal Breaks | |
| Count of Average Weekly Missed Rest Breaks |
Enter a percentage to discount each damage category for litigation risk. 0 is no discount, 100 is fully discounted. These discounts can be expanded to any level of complexity, for example separating the third year of FLSA damages to account for willfulness separately.
| Damage Category | Full Value | % | Discounted |
|---|---|---|---|
| Unpaid Backpay — Weeks Under 40 Hours | $573,607 | $573,607 | |

Dynamic Extrapolations
Extrapolate For Missing Data With Confidence
Missing Weeks
Missing Class Members
Current Employees
Individualized Averages
Instant Updates
Risk Discounts
Incorporating robust extrapolation in your damage models helps credibly identify damages missing from the data. For example, many matters require identifying and valuing workweeks for current employees or class members who are missing from the production. Our models update in real time, risk discounts fold directly into the extrapolated figures, and new information can be incorporated instantly.
Extrapolations begin where your data ends. The below figures represent the damages captured in your available data and would usually be fed automatically from your damage model. However, we have left them editable here so you can explore how changes affect the extrapolation totals.
| Values From Your Case | Value |
|---|---|
| Total Weeks In Data | |
| Total Class Members In Data | |
| Total Damages From Data | $ |
| Calculated Averages | Value |
|---|---|
| Average Damages Per Week | $50 |
| Average Damages Per Class Member | $5,000 |
Weeks can be missing from data for many reasons, most commonly for current employees who are missing weeks from the end of the data through some future date. Note that while this example uses a simple global average, we regularly track missing weeks from multiple categories and can calculate individualized extrapolation averages based on each worker's own data.
| Category | Value |
|---|---|
| Weeks Missing From Data | |
| Extrapolated Value | $25,000 |
When no work history exists, damages can only be estimated using the average damages per class member. Quantifying this exposure early often prompts defendants to produce missing data or hire and termination dates, resolving potentially expensive disputes between the parties.
| Category | Value |
|---|---|
| Missing Class Members | |
| Extrapolated Value | $50,000 |
Once extrapolated values are established, discounts can be applied to reflect the likelihood of recovery. Categories can be expanded to capture different risk situations, for example missing weeks for current employees versus weeks missing within the data pull.
| Category | Full Value | % | Disc |
|---|---|---|---|
| Missing Weeks | $25,000 | 0 | $25,000 |
| Missing Class Members | $50,000 | 0 | $50,000 |
