WHAT WE DO
John Duval Associates LLC creates strategies
to assist our clients in all stages of securities litigation.
Our knowledge of financial markets, industry experience, and the

opinion reports, fact analysis, strategic planning, critique of
opposing experts, risk analyses, exhibits, and testimony.
Our services can be broken up into four distinct phases of a case:

liability (and damages, if needed) before a claim is filed as
well as offer help in defending a claim.
