CLE & Reception: Litigation Finance 101

Join us for a panel discussion on Litigation Finance 101:
How Corporations Can Tap Into a New Market to Finance Litigation Costs

Corporations are increasingly turning to litigation funding companies to finance commercial litigation costs, reduce pressure on their budgets, and drive value to their organizations. But many in-house and outside lawyers do not know much about this emerging area of the legal industry or the opportunities it presents for the legal department to add value to the corporation.

In this CLE, we will bring together representatives from leading litigation funders to discuss the following topics:

• Types of cases that corporations finance

• Financing process

• Financing structures, typical terms, and impact on corporate financial statements

• Legal issues related to financing

• How financing is best utilized by in-house counsel
