How we
work

Our Team

We bring together the financial and legal experience of a diverse group of credit and distressed investors who are also former transactional attorneys and litigators.

Collectively, we have decades of experience investing in, and underwriting, risk regarding legal, tax and regulatory assets. Whether for short term liquidity needs, capital to invest for growth, or improvements of a capital structure, we create bespoke deal structures with the aim to optimize both investment returns and counterparty needs.

Our Investments

We categorize our investments in three strategies:

  • 1

    Loans to Law Firms

    Collateralized by the entire law firm portfolio or a diverse subsection of various claims.

  • 2

    Portfolio Financing

    Financing portfolios of legal assets.

  • 3

    Special Situations

    Investments where the primary driver of value is a legal, tax, or regulatory asset.

  • 4

    Distressed and Layering Transactions

    Provide rescue financing in situations where the primary lender becomes capital constrained.
