Advocating for litigation funders that strengthen the fight for justice
Fighting for justice against the biggest corporations requires more resources than ever. Accordingly, a growing number of legal finance companies have entered the marketplace to help level the playing field for plaintiffs.
But the truth is that third party litigation funding is still poorly understood, leaving it vulnerable to attack.
A report from Westfleet Advisors found that the legal finance industry committed $2.8 billion to deals in 2021, and its assets under management increased from $9.4 billion to $12.4 billion in the last two years. Because litigation finance threatens the advantages defendants have enjoyed for decades, corporate interests have embarked on a campaign to spread disinformation in the court of public opinion, targeting legislatures and regulatory agencies that they hope will undermine this nascent yet critical industry.
Disinformation spreads quickly when there is an information vacuum. We have the experience and expertise to counter this disinformation and ensure the industry’s voice is represented in debates that are crucial to the future of the civil justice system.
