Our litigation funding process – from initial intake and negotiation of a term sheet, through due diligence, execution of funding agreements, and implementation over the life of the litigation – has been developed and is conducted with, the highest ethical standard of performance in mind.
Preserving the confidentiality of documents and information.
Ensuring that there are no restrictions on the ability of claimholder's trial counsel to exercise independent judgment on behalf of the claimholder throughout the litigation.
Preserving the attorney client privilege and the attorney work product protection.
Protecting the trial lawyer's duty of loyalty to the client.
Encouraging the client to seek independent legal advice in connection with its consideration of any litigation funding transaction.
Complying with applicable legal and regulatory rules in the relevant jurisdictions.
The best way for companies and their counsel to determine if litigation finance is an attractive option is to discuss it with us.
