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.

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.

01

Back pay

Actual day-counting, scheduled raises, and interim-earnings offsets, period by period.

02

Front pay

Future lost earnings present-valued to your work-life and discount assumptions.

03

Prejudgment interest

Statutory or custom rates, compounded on the right basis through the right dates.

04

FLSA liquidated

Unpaid wages and overtime with liquidated doubling built into the model.

05

Lost benefits

Health, retirement, and W-2 Box-12 values folded into the make-whole figure.

06

Mitigation

Track interim earnings and job-search activity, with offsets applied automatically.

07

Document extraction

Pull figures straight from pay records, offer letters, and W-2s.

08

Court-ready exports

A clean damages report — every rate, date, and assumption on the page.
