J.B. Heaton
"Heaton is thus imminently qualified as an expert, and the Court will assign the appropriate weight to Heaton’s testimony." - Spence v. American Airlines, Inc., 23-cv-00552-O (N.D. Tex. Jan. 10, 2025).
My personal mission is to uncover the truth and effectively rebut falsehoods in litigation.
With deep expertise at the intersection of finance, law, and litigation, I specialize in counterfactual analysis—guiding clients through the complexities of 'what should have been' in high-stakes disputes. Holding both a Ph.D. in finance and a J.D. and leveraging decades of experience as both a litigator and expert witness, I offer unique insights into damages, valuation, and economic causation.
​
My scholarly publications on financial analysis, corporate damages, and valuation methods have been frequently cited by courts and academics, underscoring the rigorous and respected nature of my work.
I am dedicated to empowering decision-makers with clear, actionable intelligence, equipping them to confront challenging financial and legal problems confidently and strategically.
​
I thrive in collaborative environments, partnering closely with dedicated teams that share my passion for intellectual rigor and an unwavering commitment to excellence.
My greatest satisfaction comes from illuminating critical insights and patterns, enabling clients to confidently navigate their most demanding strategic challenges.
