Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits should not be reported as cash and cash equivalents.

Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits should not be reported as cash and cash equivalents.

| New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted | 2. New Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted In June 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income, which amends current comprehensive income guidance. This accounting update eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of shareholders' equity. Instead, the company must report comprehensive income in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income which contains two sections, net income and other comprehensive income, or in two separate but consecutive statements. This guidance will be effective for us beginning in the first quarter of 2012. We do not expect the guidance to impact our consolidated financial statements, as it only requires a change in the format of presentation. |

Potentially dilutive common shares include the dilutive effects of shares issuable under our equity compensation plans, including stock options and restricted stock, and shares issuable upon conversion of our 3 3/4% senior subordinated convertible notes due 2012 ("Convertible Notes") assuming the conversion premium was converted into common stock based on the average closing price per share of our stock during the period, each using the treasury stock method. The conversion feature of our Convertible Notes had a dilutive effect on our earnings per share for the periods presented below because the average closing price per share of our common stock for such periods was above the conversion price of the Convertible Notes of $31.25 per share.

| Financial Instruments | 7. Financial Instruments Fair Value of Financial Instruments We consider the recorded value of certain of our financial assets and liabilities, which consist primarily of cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable, to approximate the fair value of the respective assets and liabilities at June 30, 2011, based on the short-term nature of the assets and liabilities. The fair value of our long-term debt at June 30, 2011 was $849.0 million compared to a carrying value of $814.8 million. At December 31, 2010, the fair value of our long-term debt was $847.2 million compared to a carrying value of $810.8 million. We determined the fair value of our long-term debt primarily based on quoted market prices for our 7 3/4% senior notes due 2016, 6 3/4% senior notes due 2020 and Convertible Notes. The carrying value of long-term debt includes the $18.0 million equity component of our Convertible Notes which is recorded in "Additional paid-in capital" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Derivative Financial Instruments From time to time, we hedge the cash flows and fair values of some of our long-term debt using interest rate swaps. We enter into these derivative contracts to manage our exposure to interest rate changes by achieving a desired proportion of fixed rate versus variable rate debt. Accordingly, to achieve the desired mix of fixed and floating interest rate debt, we entered into four interest rate swap agreements in March 2011, which qualify and have been designated as fair value hedges. The interest rate swaps mature on October 1, 2016. Under the terms of the interest rate swaps, we receive interest on the $215.0 million notional amount at a fixed rate of 7 3/4% and pay a variable rate of interest, based on LIBOR as the benchmark interest rate. For the three months ended June 30, 2011, our variable interest rate was 5.48%. The maturity, payment dates and other critical terms of these swaps exactly match those of the hedged senior notes. These interest rate swaps qualified for hedge accounting using the short-cut method under ASC 815-20-25, Derivatives and Hedging (formerly SFAS No. 133), which assumes no hedge ineffectiveness. As a result, changes in the fair value of the interest rate swaps and changes in the fair value of the hedged debt were assumed to be equal and offsetting. As of June 30, 2011, the fair value of our interest rate swaps was an asset of $2.2 million, which is recorded in "Other assets" on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The impact of effectively converting the interest rate of $215.0 million of our senior notes from fixed rate to variable rate decreased interest expense by $1.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

| Acquisitions | 8. Acquisitions In March 2011, we completed acquisitions of certain practices of LECG Corporation in Europe, the United States and Latin America with services relating to those provided through our Economic Consulting, Forensic and Litigation Consulting, and Corporate Finance/Restructuring segments. The acquisition-date fair value of the total consideration transferred is approximately $30.0 million, which consisted of $27.0 million of cash paid at the closings of these acquisitions, a portion of which is subject to certain working capital and other adjustments, and contingent consideration with an estimated fair value of $3.0 million. As part of the preliminary purchase price allocation, we recorded an aggregate of $24.6 million in accounts receivable, $6.0 million in identifiable intangible assets, $18.8 million of assumed liabilities and $14.9 million in goodwill. Aggregate acquisition-related costs of approximately $1.4 million have been recognized in earnings in the first quarter of 2011. Pro forma results of operations have not been presented because the acquisitions were not material in relation to our consolidated financial position or results of operations for the periods presented. Certain acquisition-related restricted stock agreements entered into prior to January 1, 2009 contain stock price guarantees that may result in cash payments in the future if our share price falls below a specified per share market value on the date that the applicable stock restrictions lapse (the "determination date"). For those acquisitions, the future settlement of any contingency related to our common stock price will be recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in capital. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we paid $6.2 million in cash in relation to the stock price guarantees on certain shares of common stock that became unrestricted, which was recorded as a reduction to additional paid-in-capital. Our remaining common stock price guarantee provisions have stock floor prices that range from $24.50 to $69.48 per share and have determination dates that range from 2011 to 2013. |

| Goodwill And Other Intangible Assets | 9. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets The changes in the carrying amounts of goodwill by business segment for the six months ended June 30, 2011, are as follows:
Other intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives. For intangible assets with finite lives, we recorded amortization expense of $5.5 million and $11.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and $5.9 million and $11.9 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. Based solely on the amortizable intangible assets recorded as of June 30, 2011, we estimate amortization expense to be $11.2 million during the remainder of 2011, $22.2 million in 2012, $20.4 million in 2013, $11.8 million in 2014, $10.8 million in 2015, $9.3 million in 2016 and $40.7 million in years after 2016. Actual amortization expense to be reported in future periods could differ from these estimates as a result of new intangible asset acquisitions, finalization of asset valuations for newly acquired assets, changes in useful lives, changes in value due to foreign currency translation or other factors. During the six months ended June 30, 2011, we wrote-off $26.3 million of fully amortized intangible assets related to our customer relationships, non-competition agreements, tradenames and contract backlog with a net book value of zero.

Convertible Notes Our Convertible Notes are convertible at the option of the holder during any conversion period if the per share closing price of our common stock exceeds the conversion threshold price of $37.50 for at least 20 trading days in the 30 consecutive trading day period ending on the first day of such conversion period. A conversion period is the period from and including the eleventh trading day in a fiscal quarter up to but not including the eleventh trading day of the following fiscal quarter. When the Convertible Notes are convertible at the option of the holder, they are classified as current on our Consolidated Balance Sheet. When the Convertible Notes are not convertible at the option of the holder, and the scheduled maturity is not within one year after the balance sheet date, they are classified as long-term. As of June 30, 2011, the Convertible Notes are classified as long-term given that the per share price of our common stock did not close above the conversion threshold for 20 days in the 30 consecutive trading day period ended April 14, 2011. As of July 15, 2011, the Convertible Notes did not meet the conversion threshold and therefore, the Convertible Notes will remain non-convertible and classified as long-term through July 16, 2011, when the Convertible Notes will be a year from maturity and classified as short-term. 6 3/4% Senior Notes Due 2020 On September 27, 2010, we issued $400.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6 3/4% senior notes due 2020 ("6 3/4% senior notes") in a private offering (the "Offering") that was exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The 6 3/4% senior notes were sold to "qualified institutional buyers" as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act and non-U.S. persons outside the United States under Regulation S under the Securities Act. The net proceeds from the Offering were $390.4 million after deducting debt issuance costs. On March 25, 2011, the Company filed a Registration Statement on Form S-4 with the SEC to register the exchange offer of the 6 3/4% senior notes for publicly registered senior notes with identical terms, which was declared effective on May 24, 2011. The Company completed the exchange offer of all outstanding 6 3/4% senior notes on June 24, 2011. |

| Stockholders' Equity | |
| Stockholders' Equity | 13. Stockholders' Equity Common Stock Repurchase Program In November 2009, our Board of Directors authorized a two-year stock repurchase program of up to $500.0 million (the "Repurchase Program") and terminated the $50.0 million stock repurchase program authorized in February 2009. Also in November 2009, we entered into a collared stock buyback master confirmation agreement (the "Master Agreement") with Goldman, Sachs & Co. ("Goldman Sachs"). Through December 31, 2010, we repurchased and retired approximately 6,633,680 shares of our common stock with a value equivalent to approximately $290.6 million at the time of repurchase under the Repurchase Program, including a $250.0 million accelerated stock buyback transaction pursuant to a supplemental confirmation under the Master Agreement. As of December 31, 2010, a balance of $209.4 million remained available under the Repurchase Program to fund stock repurchases by the Company. On March 2, 2011, we entered into a supplemental confirmation with Goldman Sachs for a $209.4 million accelerated stock buyback (the "2011 ASB"), pursuant to the Master Agreement. On March 7, 2011, we paid $209.4 million to Goldman Sachs using available cash on hand and received a majority of the shares of FTI Consulting common stock, representing 4,433,671 shares, expected to be delivered in the 2011 ASB. On May 17, 2011, FTI Consulting received additional shares bringing the total number of shares of our common stock delivered in the 2011 ASB to 5,061,558 shares of FTI Consulting common stock. The specific number of shares that ultimately will be repurchased in the 2011 ASB will be based generally on the volume-weighted average share price of our common stock during the term of the repurchase agreement, subject to provisions that establish minimum and maximum numbers of shares. The 2011 ASB contemplates that final settlement may occur in December 2011, although under certain circumstances, at Goldman Sachs' discretion, the completion date may be accelerated. At settlement, we may be entitled to receive additional shares of our common stock from Goldman Sachs. This transaction was accounted for as two separate transactions, a share repurchase and a forward contract indexed to our own stock. The repurchase of shares was accounted for as a share retirement resulting in a reduction of common stock issued and outstanding of 5,061,558 shares and a corresponding reduction in common stock and additional paid-in capital of $209.4 million. Any additional shares received will be accounted for as a share retirement in the period(s) in which the shares are received. The 2011 ASB completes the Repurchase Program. For the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the forward contract was anti-dilutive as the forward contract represented a contingent number of shares that could be delivered to FTI Consulting by the investment bank. As the shares were anti-dilutive, their impact was not considered in the computation of earnings per share for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 in accordance with the guidance of ASC 260, Earnings Per Share. Additional shares that may be received before the final settlement date in December 2011 will be considered in the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding used for the calculation of earnings per share after delivery to FTI Consulting. |

Text block that encapsulates the detailed table comprising the condensed financial statements (balance sheet, income statement and statement of cash flows), normally using the registrant (parent) as the sole domain member. If condensed consolidating financial statements are being presented, other domain members (in addition to parent) such as guarantor subsidiaries, non-guarantor subsidiaries, and the consolidation eliminations, will be included in order that the respective monetary amounts for each of the domains will aggregate to the respective amounts on the consolidated financial statements. The line items are the various captions used to compile the condensed financial statements. Using extensions, most, if not all, of the elements representing condensed financial statement captions will be the same as those used for the consolidated financial statements captions.

- Definition
Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits should not be reported as cash and cash equivalents.

- Definition
Includes currency on hand as well as demand deposits with banks or financial institutions. It also includes other kinds of accounts that have the general characteristics of demand deposits in that the Entity may deposit additional funds at any time and also effectively may withdraw funds at any time without prior notice or penalty. Cash equivalents, excluding items classified as marketable securities, include short-term, highly liquid investments that are both readily convertible to known amounts of cash, and so near their maturity that they present minimal risk of changes in value because of changes in interest rates. Generally, only investments with original maturities of three months or less qualify under that definition. Original maturity means original maturity to the entity holding the investment. For example, both a three-month US Treasury bill and a three-year Treasury note purchased three months from maturity qualify as cash equivalents. However, a Treasury note purchased three years ago does not become a cash equivalent when its remaining maturity is three months. Compensating balance arrangements that do not legally restrict the withdrawal or usage of cash amounts may be reported as Cash and Cash Equivalents, while legally restricted deposits held as compensating balances against borrowing arrangements, contracts entered into with others, or company statements of intention with regard to particular deposits should not be reported as cash and cash equivalents.
