Themis Legal Capital provides non-recourse financing to companies involved in large, meritorious, commercial disputes, and to law firms with portfolios of large commercial disputes funded on a contingent fee basis. Resolving these types of disputes often takes considerable time and requires significant funding. In many cases the aggrieved party simply lacks the liquidity to effectively finance the cost of pursuing its claim and vindicating its rights. A disparity in financial resources between the aggrieved party and the responsible party enables a large defendant with a weak case to wage a war of attrition by delay and legal proceedings to extract an unfair settlement. Themis’ funding can balance the scales of justice enabling the aggrieved party to effectively finance the dispute resolution process and reach a fair settlement In other cases, the aggrieved party is looking for additional working capital and Themis’ funding serves as a valuable corporate financing tool. Themis’ investment can free up working capital for allocation to other business priorities. Because Themis’ investment is non-recourse, the cost of the litigation covered by Themis is not an expense reflected on the company’s income statement. Law firms are under increasing pressures to offer alternative fee arrangements to their clients and they are often constrained by their own cultures or financial models from funding their litigation docket on a contingent fee basis. Themis’ funding provides law firms with a means to offer their clients a substitute for a contingent fee arrangement. For those firms that are prepared to take cases on a contingent fee basis, Themis will finance the out of pocket expenses of a case, share the investment risk with a firm working on a partial contingent fee, or advance funding against the firm’s entire contingent fee portfolio.
