Litigation is something most companies want to avoid; unfortunately, it is a reality that we all have to be prepared for; therefore, understanding some of the things that can propel you to the winning side of a trial is beneficial to corporations and law firms. During the
Advanced Legal Strategy Summit on Litigation and Finance, we will tackle topics such as choosing the right law firm, case selection, litigation analytics, utilizing jury consultants and expert witnesses, and how to fund your law suit. Additionally, we will examine whether Third-Party Litigation Funding (TPLF) or self-funding is right for you. In addition, we will consider pending regulations and ethical considerations of using TPLF and what financing companies need to do to ensure client satisfaction. You will leave understanding new litigation best practices, ideas as to how and why your litigation financing strategy matters, and also how to take advantage of emerging technologies in order to make the best and most profitable decisions possible.
