The status quo
The spreadsheet is where a strong damages case goes to die.
Building it by hand
- Hours per scenario, rebuilt every time the facts change.
- Formula errors you can’t see and can’t defend on the stand.
- Statutory rates and day-counts looked up case by case.
- A number you hesitate to put in a demand letter.
With Recourse
- Minutes, not hours — enter the facts, get the figure.
- Every line auditable — each number shows its math and citation.
- Statutes built in — interest, FLSA doubling, day-counts handled.
- Court-ready output — export a report with every assumption shown.
How it works
From intake to a court-ready report in three steps.
Set up the case
Enter the facts, or have your client complete a guided intake in the client portal — wages, benefits, and timeline flow straight in. Pull figures from pay records and W-2s with document extraction.
Recourse computes
Back pay, front pay, prejudgment interest, FLSA liquidated damages, mitigation offsets, and statutory caps — each line with its math and citation, on current IRS and BLS rates.
Export and negotiate
Generate a clean damages report — every rate, date, and assumption on the page — for your demand letter, mediation, or the court. Walk in knowing the number holds up.
What it computes
Every component of the make-whole number.
One model, defensible end to end — from the first paycheck missed to the report you file.
Back pay
Actual day-counting, scheduled raises, and interim-earnings offsets, period by period.
Front pay
Future lost earnings present-valued to your work-life and discount assumptions.
Prejudgment interest
Statutory or custom rates, compounded on the right basis through the right dates.
FLSA liquidated
Unpaid wages and overtime with liquidated doubling built into the model.
Lost benefits
Health, retirement, and W-2 Box-12 values folded into the make-whole figure.
Mitigation
Track interim earnings and job-search activity, with offsets applied automatically.
Statutory caps
Title VII compensatory/punitive caps by employer size, applied and flagged.
Court-ready exports
A clean damages report — every rate, date, and assumption on the page.
