Litigation Finance Syndication
We syndicate non-recourse capital into screened commercial claims and arbitration matters. Files come with merits analysis, damages modeling, counsel profile, budget, and a clear path to enforcement. Claimholders get staying power without equity dilution. Investors get structured exposure with controls, reporting, and a defined waterfall.
Snapshot: Single cases and portfolios backed by top-tier counsel, measurable damages, ATE cover where available, escrowed draws, and recovery plans that can be executed. We place capital into structures that protect process and cash flows.

- Claimholders and law firms
needing non-recourse funding to run meritorious cases without starving operations.

FAQ
Do you control litigation strategy
No. Strategy sits with the claimant and counsel. Funding terms set reporting and budget controls. We do not direct legal decisions.
Are returns fixed
No. Outcomes depend on case results and recoveries. Funding is non-recourse. If there is no recovery, capital may be lost.
Who can participate in syndications
Participation is limited to qualified and accredited investors in permitted jurisdictions. Allocations depend on suitability and capacity.
