LITIGATION FINANCE 
LAWYERS

We look at the available options and advises on how a case could be funded. This can include third-party funding, CFAs, DBAs, ATE insurance, portfolio funding and bespoke arrangements.

We work with multiple funders and have worked with nine of the UK's biggest funders. We help our clients access and negotiate with funders, so they can find the right arrangement for their dispute. 

We understand the full breadth of approaches and terms available. And because we work with companies, funders and law firms, we understand the risks and concerns for everybody involved. We know what all the parties are thinking, how they will approach the case and, as a result, provide more holistic, informed and complete advice.

We help companies and funders decide which disputes to fight. Our CONTROL offering includes legal and commercial case assessments. We can advise you on the claim you may be seeking to fund, your template agreements, or help develop the best way to structure a bespoke funding arrangement.

We advise on the mechanics and terms of funding, including single-case funding, portfolio funding, bespoke structures, funding agreements and contingency fee arrangements. We also advise funders themselves on claims they are considering funding.

We regularly enter into risk-share agreements and offer our own alternative fee arrangements. For example:

DBA: AG may receive no fees during the case and instead take an agreed percentage of damages if the claim succeeds.

CFA: the client pays a reduced fee during the case, with further fees and potentially a success fee payable if the agreed outcome is achieved.

We can then act as the lawyers on the dispute itself. Through CONTROL we help assess your case, arrange and structure the finance, share some risk where appropriate, and then litigate the case.
