Litigation funding is an increasingly-popular tool for attorneys and clients to share the risk and reward of litigation with third-party investors, and for investors to capitalize on the uncorrelated returns generated by legal-driven revenue. However, the term "litigation-" or "legal-" funding actually encompasses a handful of products, which vary based on borrower profile, stage and sector of litigation, use of proceeds, and ultimately, cost of capital and risk-reward profile. This webinar examines three funding products -- case fundings, law firm loans, and portfolio fundings -- and aims to inform attorneys on best solutions for their firms and clients, and provide an overview for institutional investors looking to allocate capital to litigations.

A dispute regarding the value of a business or business interest, other asset, or liability can often lead to litigation. When do you need a valuation expert?
An independent, third-party expert is not necessarily required during the negotiation process although it may be helpful. Once you head to litigation, an expert is all but required.
Are there credentials that are useful in identifying the appropriate expert? Are all credentialed experts the same or are there advantages to one over another? The process of selecting the right expert begins with identifying the issues in dispute. This webinar will help you by identifying and explaining key factors that you should consider in selecting an expert for your litigation circumstances.
