International law firm Brown Rudnick has advised alternative investment firm North Wall Capital on a £100m litigation funding partnership with PGMBM, a law firm focused on environmental, social and corporate governance cases. The investment will be used by PGMBM to address the growing demand from consumers and other victims of injustice to seek recourse against corporates.
In this episode, Elena Rey of Brown Rudnick discusses her effort to introduce model documentation to the litigation funding industry. Elena explains the motivations behind model documentation, what the specific benefits are, how it will impact the industry going forward, and she elaborates on Brown Rudnick’s formation of the Litigation Funding Working Group, which brings together litigation funders, insurers, legal experts and others to help formulate model documentation for use in the UK, EU and elsewhere.
