Litigation Finance 101: Options

Litigation finance

Legal disputes are expensive and risky. Litigation finance is, therefore, designed to reduce (or eliminate) the risk and cost of litigation for claimants by obtaining third party funding for all, or a portion, of the legal expenses associated with pursuing a legal claim 


Litigation financing is typically provided on a non-recourse basis - which means that there is no requirement to repay the money in the event of a negative outcome. In the event of a successful outcome then the investment and an agreed return is repaid from the proceeds recovered

Litigation-backed loans

Legal disputes are also typically lengthy. It can take years to successfully pursue and enforce claims, irrespective of the merits of the case. As a result, claimants may wish to monetise all or part of their claims in advance by way of a loan, in order to hedge their risk and generate immediate liquidity for working capital or other purposes 

Assignment of claims

In jurisdictions where it is permissible to do so a claimant may wish to sell all, or part, of their legal interest in a claim to a third party at a discount to the expected recovery amount in order to generate immediate liquidity
