Litigation Financing

Litigation Financing is a financial arrangement in which a third party provides capital to support a legal claim or lawsuit in exchange for a portion of the potential proceeds, distinguishing it from traditional legal funding by decoupling the cost of litigation from the litigant’s immediate financial resources.
