WASHINGTON, July 29, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- FTI Consulting, Inc. (NYSE: FCN) today announced that Global Arbitration Review (GAR) has recognized the firm and its Compass Lexecon subsidiary as top expert witness firms in its annual GAR 100 Expert Witness Firms Power Index.

FTI Consulting ranked first, and Compass Lexecon ranked third among all firms. According to GARs analysis, FTI Consulting continues to lead the ranks with 29 expert witnesses recognized by Whos Who Legal and recorded more than 90 construction hearings to date, the most of any firm. Compass Lexecon remains the number one firm for energy, with 32 hearings recorded. Compass Lexecon is also credited with having the most investor-state cases, with 28 hearings logged.

This year, GARs Power Index collected information directly from expert firms via questionnaires instead of requesting the data from the GAR 100 law firms. The model assesses the volume and value of two years worth of hearings, as well as the reputational influence of their members, which is measured using the 2020 editions of Whos Who Legal: Arbitration and Whos Who Legal Thought Leaders: Arbitration.
