Recently, Burford commissioned independent research on how the legal finance industry has evolved over the last 15 years. As part of the findings, law firm lawyers confirm that corporate clients are increasingly using legal finance, as 82% of those surveyed said the use of legal finance by corporations has increased over this period. A litigation boutique partner said: “Litigation is a bottom-line cost. If corporations can spread that risk by sharing it with an outside capital provider, CFOs want to explore that option, especially because corporations hate litigation expenses. They are much more open to it if they can get some or all of it covered by legal finance.” Find the full report below. #legalfinance #litigationfunding #BurfordCapital
