We fund the pursuitof meritoriousclaims.
We provide capital two ways — to companies, to meet the cost of litigation, and to portfolios of cases managed by leading law firms. In both, our capital is non-recourse: if the claim does not succeed, the client owes us nothing.
Single-case funding
We provide capital to companies to pay the attorneys' fees and expenses incurred in pursuing a meritorious claim. The litigant retains control of the case and chooses its counsel; we underwrite the merits and carry the cost of seeing the matter through to resolution.
- ◦Attorneys' fees and disbursements
- ◦Expert, e-discovery and court costs
- ◦Working capital secured against a claim
- ◦Monetisation of a pending judgment or award
- ◦Single high-value commercial disputes
- ◦Claimant- and defendant-side matters
Portfolio investment
We invest in portfolios of cases managed by leading law firms. Diversifying across many claims lets the strength of the whole — rather than the outcome of any single case — define the return, and aligns us with the firms that build and run the book.
- ◦Law-firm fee portfolios
- ◦Cross-collateralised baskets of claims
- ◦Corporate claim portfolios
- ◦Co-investment alongside firms and funders
- ◦Diversified, multi-matter exposure
- ◦Risk shared across the portfolio
Non-recourse structure
If the litigation is successful, Stington Capital is repaid its investment plus an agreed return. If it is unsuccessful, the client owes us nothing. We take ownership of the risk so litigants can pursue strong claims without putting their balance sheet behind the cost.
- ◦Return paid only on a successful outcome
- ◦No repayment if the claim fails
- ◦Pricing agreed before we commit
- ◦Off-balance-sheet for the litigant
- ◦Capital that does not dilute the business
- ◦Interests aligned with the merits
