connection with the preparation of the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the &#147;Registration Statement&#148;) and the filing thereof with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the &#147;Commission&#148;), pursuant to which the Company is
registering under&nbsp;the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the &#147;Securities Act&#148;), the aggregate number of 5,051,251 shares (the&nbsp;&#147;Shares&#148;) of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the &#147;Common Stock&#148;), of the
Company, which is the maximum number of Shares (subject to stock splits and anti-dilution provisions of the &#147;2017 Plan&#148; (as hereafter defined)) available and reserved for issuance under the FTI Consulting, Inc. 2017 Omnibus Incentive
Compensation Plan, effective as of June&nbsp;7, 2017 (the &#147;2017 Plan&#148;). The opinion hereinafter set forth is given pursuant to Item&nbsp;8 of Form S-8 and Item&nbsp;601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">As the Company&#146;s General Counsel, I am generally familiar with the proceedings that the Company and its directors and stockholders have
taken in connection with the authorization, reservation and registration of the Shares and the terms of the 2017 Plan. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">I, or attorneys
under my supervision, have examined copies of the Company&#146;s Amended and Restated Charter, as further amended, Amended and Restated Bylaws, as further amended, the 2017 Plan, resolutions adopted by the Company&#146;s Board of Directors relating
to the above matters, and other records and documents, as well as made such investigation of matters of fact and law, as I have deemed necessary for the purpose of rendering the opinion herein expressed. I have assumed the authenticity of all
documents submitted to me as originals, the genuineness of all signatures and the conformity of documents submitted to me as copies to the originals. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Based upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized and, when issued, paid for and delivered pursuant to
the terms of the 2017 Plan, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares of Common Stock of the Company. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The opinion set
forth herein is limited to matters governed by the laws of the State of Maryland and the Federal Laws of the United States of America, and I express no opinion as to any other laws. </P>
