Commercial Lawsuit Loans & Funding

Get Started

When your business is facing a legal dispute, the strength of your claim shouldn't be limited by the size of your budget. Commercial litigation funding helps level the playing field, giving you the financial backing to pursue justice without draining your operating capital. Whether you’re handling a contract breach, business tort, or shareholder dispute, this solution allows you to move forward with confidence, even when the other side has deeper pockets.

At REMO, we take a different approach to litigation funding. We’re not just here to provide capital, we help you build a tailored solution that supports your legal strategy while protecting your long-term interests. Our funding model makes it possible for strong claims to be heard based on their legal merit, not the claimant’s financial position. We work with businesses, entrepreneurs, and commercial plaintiffs across a wide range of cases, including breach of contract, trade secret misappropriation, fraud, partnership disputes, and more. If your case is strong, REMO helps make sure finances aren’t the reason it stalls.

What is Commercial Litigation Funding?

Commercial litigation funding is a process by which a third-party provider finances a portion or all of the costs of a legal dispute. This funding can be used to cover the costs of legal fees, expert witnesses, court fees, and other related expenses. The funding provider typically earns a percentage of the settlement or judgment amount if the case is successful.

How Does Commercial Litigation Funding Work?

Commercial litigation funding works by providing plaintiffs with the financial resources they need to pursue their cases. Typically, a plaintiff will apply for funding from a litigation finance provider. The provider will then review the case and determine if it is likely to be successful. If the provider decides to fund the case, it will provide the plaintiff with the funds they need to pay for legal fees and other expenses.

If the case is successful, the plaintiff will receive a settlement or judgment from the defendant. The litigation finance provider will then receive a portion of the settlement or judgment as repayment for the funding it provided. If the case is unsuccessful, the plaintiff is not required to repay the litigation finance provider.

Advantages of Commercial Litigation Funding

If you have a strong case but limited capital, commercial litigation funding can be a game-changer. It removes financial roadblocks and gives you the ability to pursue justice with the same strength and sophistication as well-resourced opponents. This funding model doesn’t just cover legal fees; it empowers you to fully commit to your claim without draining your company’s resources or risking your financial stability.

Enables Legal Pursuit

Commercial litigation funding turns a valid legal right into a viable legal strategy. It gives you the financial means to pursue your case through discovery, trial, or settlement, something that might otherwise be out of reach without outside capital.

Funds for Resource-Limited Plaintiffs

Even small businesses or individual claimants can access high-quality legal representation with the help of litigation funding. You don’t need to cut corners or settle early due to a lack of resources. Funding lets you build a strong case from day one.

Levels the Playing Field

When the other side has unlimited legal resources, it’s easy for them to use delay tactics or procedural hurdles as a weapon. Commercial litigation funding gives you the strength to push back and stay in the fight for as long as it takes.

Disadvantages of Commercial Litigation Funding

While litigation funding offers powerful advantages, it’s not the right fit for every case. It’s important to understand the potential downsides so you can make an informed decision that aligns with your goals.

High Interest Rates

Because litigation funding is non-recourse and high-risk, funders charge premium rates. These rates reflect the possibility that they won’t be repaid at all if the case fails. You should compare offers carefully and weigh the cost of capital against the value of pursuing your claim.

Reduced Settlement Amount

The funder’s return is typically a percentage of your settlement or judgment. That means your final net recovery will be lower than it would be without funding. It’s important to calculate how much you’ll keep after repayment, and whether the funding still makes strategic sense.

Creates Interest Conflicts

In some cases, a funder’s financial priorities may differ from yours. For example, they may favor a quicker settlement over continuing to trial. While reputable funders remain non-intrusive, it’s important to review your agreement closely and ensure it protects your autonomy.

Prioritizes Quick Settlement

Because the cost of funding can grow over time, there may be pressure, real or perceived, to resolve the case earlier than planned. You should work with a funder who understands your strategy and supports your litigation timeline.

How to Improve Your Chances of Getting Approval for Commercial Litigation Funding

Funders look for strong, clearly presented cases with high recovery potential. The more compelling your application, the more likely you are to receive favorable terms. Here’s how to make your case stand out:

Strong Case Documentation

Organize everything from pleadings and correspondence to expert reports and financial records. A clear timeline, supporting evidence, and a well-defined claim help funders quickly understand the strength of your case.

Clear Recovery Potential

Develop a solid damages model that quantifies the claim’s financial value and outlines a realistic path to recovery. Include projections, supporting documentation, and any information that shows the defendant can pay.

Experienced Legal Team

Having an attorney with relevant experience and a track record of success in similar litigation significantly improves your credibility. Funders want to see that your legal team has the skills and history to drive the case to a favorable result.

Transparent Financial Assessment

Provide information on the defendant’s assets, insurance policies, and financial condition. This helps the funder assess the likelihood of collecting on a judgment or settlement, and increases their confidence in the investment.
