An Agenda for Future Research in Forensic Economics: Topics from NAFE Surveys and Additional Proposals

This paper provides suggestions for future research by forensic economists, focused upon personal injury and wrongful death cases. The paper is particially based on questions from our 10 surveys of NAFE members over 25 years, in which members were directly asked to rank future areas of forensic economic research in importance. We discuss answers to important questions where there is little or no consensus among respondents, and where consensus is reasonably clear, as this may influence topics chosen for future research. We also discuss research topics by drawing on our own experience as forensic economists.
