Funding Commercial Litigation and Disputes at Blake Morgan

If your case is successful, you pay a success fee or uplift to our basic charges. If the case is unsuccessful and you have a 100% CFAs, you do not have to pay our fees. You'd still have to pay court fees, experts' and counsel's fees.

Funding from a third party "funder" pays third party costs upfront including court fees, expert fees, insurance cover and counsel's fees. It can also pay some or all of our fees if we agree a partial, say 50/50, CFA. Interest and a success fee is usually payable to the funder if your claim is successful. Litigation funding reduces or avoid the costs of paying upfront to bring a claim. It therefore transfers some or all of your risk in bringing a claim and reduces monthly cash flow demands.

You should always check your insurance policy to find out if you already have insurance in place to cover legal fees. After the Event Insurance is also available after the dispute arises. It protects against your liability to pay your opponent's legal costs if your claim is unsuccessful. As panel members for various insurer clients, we may be able to act for you under any legal expenses insurance policy.
