Litigation Finance
Overview
The rapidly expanding field of commercial litigation finance holds great promise for litigants, law firms and investors alike. For businesses that hold meritorious litigation claims it provides a new, flexible form of financial management as well an effective way to mitigate the expense and outcome uncertainty of pursuing them. For law firms, it provides a way to hedge the risk of contingency matters and capitalize sustained litigation efforts. And for investors, it offers an opportunity to diversify into a novel asset class with high-yield and non-market-correlated returns.
