Clients involved in litigation from jurisdictions from around the world engage TheJudge to source litigation finance to help with cashflow for their legal spend and legal costs insurance to cap their financial exposure to losing the case.
There is a market of insurers offering legal costs insurance to cover a litigant’s own legal budget (e.g. lawyer’s fees, barrister’s fees, expert’s fees etc) as well as the risk of paying the opponent’s costs where cost-shifting applies.
Similarly, in the US, Europe and increasingly in Asia, there is a fast growing and diverse market of litigation funders keen to consider opportunities to deploy funds on a non-recourse basis to assist litigants in bringing good quality claims.
TheJudge will submit all proposals to multiple funders and insurers based on our detailed knowledge of the provider’s risk appetite, eligibility criteria and service standards. We approach the market simultaneously, creating a competitive tender environment for the case where terms and pricing are set on a bespoke basis.
