Overview

Third-party litigation funding is raising controversial questions as an asset class that allows funders with no legal interest to invest in litigation. Does litigation funding transgress legal ethical norms? Does litigation funding impact the value of claims? Who benefits from litigation funding? You are invited to listen to Wiggin & Dana Attorney Michael Menapace, R Street Finance, Insurance & Trade (FIT) Resident Fellow Caroline Melear, and FIT Director Jerry Theodorou discuss issues and concerns surrounding litigation funding.
