Litigation funding update

Please join us for a CLE webinar presented by Wendie Childress, Managing Director and Counsel at Westfleet Advisors.

The litigation finance industry has experienced explosive growth. Considering its relevance with individual plaintiffs, companies and law firms, it is more important than ever for practitioners to remain educated and conversant on the opportunities presented by legal finance, as well as common missteps, pitfalls and ethics issues encountered when trying to navigate the market.

This program will review the funding process, including the benefits of funding and what claims can be financed, how transactions are structured and the pros and cons of different structures, ethical and regulatory considerations, best practices in seeking funding and an update on trends and developments in the industry.
