Levenfeld Pearlstein is one of the nation’s leading providers of transactional services in the burgeoning area of litigation finance. We represent prominent litigation finance firms, hedge funds, and other investors in entering into single-case financing transactions with plaintiffs, as well as financing transactions with law firms that are collateralized by pools of contingency fee matters (“portfolio transactions”) or, alternatively, all assets. We also represent plaintiffs and law firms in such transactions, which, when combined with our extensive experience on behalf of investors, has given us a uniquely strong understanding of market terms for the industry. Whether we are representing the capital provider or capital recipient, this understanding is foundational to a skillful negotiation and efficient transactional process.
