The praise for Bruce Walker and Source Strategies was practically glowing in the terms of a judicial opinion. In the opinion, Justice Whitehill wrote that Bruce Walker’s provided “testimony that educated the jury.”
“..an expert on hotel valuation.”
“testimony that educated the jury..”
“testimony was significant..”
“..walked a fine line..”
“We conclude that Walker’s opinions are based on reliable methodology and are sufficiently grounded in the evidence”
“There is no gap in his testimony because he fully explained the factual bases for his conclusions.”
“Because Walker’s opinions were reliable and relevant to the market value determination, it was the type of expert opinion the trial court could reasonably have concluded would assist the trier of fact.”
