WELCOME TO GARY WOLFSTONE'S CHRISTMAS BLOG ~ The trial lawyer is frequently called upon to prove a wage loss in an arbitration, mediation or trial. Certainly one option is to ask an expert witness with a degree in economics to review the wage loss and generate a letter which can be included in an affidavit. A less expensive option is to consult the MIT resource found at Living Wage Calculator

   In many American communities, families working in low-wage jobs make insufficient income to live given the local cost of living. The MIT calculator is specifically tied to each of our fifty states and takes costs of living into account. Additionally, The Calculator includes specific information about the subsumed counties, and the scholarly articles are equally authoritative.

  This is my Christmas Gift to you!  Use it often in your briefs.
