What is Litigation Funding for Legal and Compliance Firms?
Types of Litigation Funding
Litigation funding for legal and compliance firms comes in several forms, including single-case funding (for a specific lawsuit), portfolio funding (covering multiple cases to spread risk), and defense funding (supporting defendants’ legal costs). Funding is usually non-recourse, meaning the funder only gets paid if the case is successful.
How Litigation Funding Works
A third-party funder provides upfront capital to cover legal costs, such as expert fees and court filings, in exchange for a share of any settlement or judgment. The process involves case evaluation, due diligence, contract negotiation, and ongoing monitoring. If the case is lost, the funder typically receives nothing.
Benefits and Compliance Considerations
Litigation funding helps law firms manage cash flow, take on more cases, and reduce financial risk. However, firms must address compliance issues like confidentiality, privilege protection, and disclosure requirements, which can vary by jurisdiction.
