Litigation Funding Shift Led to Legal Industry Growth During Pandemic

 

New York, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 01/31/2022 -- The financial outlook for the legal sector has been seriously challenged by the pandemic and several years ago did not look positive. However, despite the shadows of downsizing and insolvency, 2021 saw the legal sector completely turn things around. In the first nine months of the year revenues were up 14% on average, compared to 6.3% in 2019. Plus, a number of AM 100 firms experienced a spike in profits per partner that equated to an all-time high. Funding for litigation has been a significant part of this growth over the past two years, influenced by a range of different factors, from regulatory shifts to macroeconomic movements. Third-party funding has gone through some key changes and there are a number of 2022 trends that are going to be especially relevant, including post-COVID economic factors (with a wealth of disputes arising around supply chain breakdowns, for example), an increase in preferred partnership transactions and the possibility of disclosure of funding agreements.
