Litigation Funding
Australia is a leading jurisdiction for commercial third party litigation funding and Piper Alderman has been at the forefront of the litigation funding industry since its inception. We ran some of the original cases that opened up third party funding in Australia, leading the world in third party funding.
We work closely with major litigation funders in Australia and worldwide. We have extensive experience advising on funded commercial litigation claims, including class actions, insolvency, construction and intellectual property claims as well as treaty enforcement.
Piper Alderman is the Australian contributor to a global guide on litigation funding published by Getting the Deal Through. The publication compares the legal and practical issues relating to third-party litigation around the world. The guide highlights the importance of litigation funding in assisting litigants to obtain access to justice and Australia’s unique position in promoting third party funding.
