Polish attorneys are navigating the lack of congruence in the country’s emerging third party litigation funding space. Many claimants are not aware of the benefits of third party funding, and the different aspects of how investments of this nature can benefit their bottom line.
RP.pl reports positive structural shifts taking shape, rallying popularity in third party litigation finance. Many international investors have entered the Polish market looking for returns. RP notes that in terms of arbitration proceedings, third party funding has now become a permanent fixture in Poland.
The RP feature outlines several visionary funding scenarios for claimants and plaintiffs to consider. One unique instance applies to both parties participating in third party funding, for example related to a counterclaim. RP shares that this feature is extremely risk-focused, in that the funder would habitually require a high degree of certainty as to the counterclaim’s success.
The success of Poland’s third party litigation funding market hinges on overall public awareness. Many individuals are looking to attorneys to promote and inform awareness associated with features of third party funding.
