We are committed to give you access to legal finance and/or overcome a special situation and to give our investors a return on their investment.
We are a strong advocate for access-to-justice. Today, it does require considerable time, commitment and money to safeguard your right against an opposite party with financial resources. This is something that large companies, authorities and governments take advantage of in order to escape liability. Most of our investments will create balance of power and thus level the playing field.
Disputes and special situations often involve feelings of resentment among the parties involved. We look at each investment opportunity with a professional and analytic approach and will remain objective throughout the term of the investment. We will never fund a case without strong merits.
Sometimes an investment by us is not the best solution for you. If this is our conclusion after reviewing your case or special situation, we will guide you to what we think is a better alternative. We believe that being honest, flexible and helpful will benefit all parties involved in the long perspective.
Our investors are committed in an evergreen structure. We will thus never discontinue the funding of a case just because we need to close any fund. Our investors understand that some of the cases will take time, a lot of time.
Our team has vast experience of managing disputes and other special situations.
Evergreen capital structure enabling a long-term commitment.
Full discretion towards third parties (unless disclosure is required under applicable rules). Full transparency towards our partners.
