4. Special Charges

During the three months ended June 30, 2016, we recorded special charges totaling $1.7 million related to the termination of 19 employees in the health solutions practice of our Forensic and Litigation Consulting (“FLC”) segment. The termination actions resulted from the elimination of certain specialized offerings which no longer support the strategic focus of this practice. The special charges consisted of salary continuance and other contractual employee-related costs, net of the reversal of accelerated expense of a forgivable loan.

During the six months ended June 30, 2016, we recorded special charges of $6.8 million related to the employee terminations in the health solutions practice of our FLC segment as described above, and special charges recorded during the three months ended March 31, 2016 related to employee terminations in our Technology segment.
