    Abstract
    The litigation funding landscape remains highly active as more legal and corporate companies turn to litigation finance in resolving disputes. Significantly, several risk issues were opened because of the absence of clear regulatory guidance for the effective use of litigation finance. The ongoing pandemic has also added to the complexity of this area.

    With these and other risk issues, it is of utmost importance for companies and their counsel to be on top of every development and update in this area of law. They must also be more proactive in looking for effective practices to maximize the use of litigation funding while ensuring effective management of legal risks and pitfalls.

    In this LIVE Webcast, a seasoned panel of thought leaders and professionals brought together by The Knowledge Group will provide the audience with an in-depth discussion of the recent and emerging trends in litigation funding. They will also present the critical considerations for lawyers and their clients as well as offer the best practices essential to effectively manage emerging legal issues.

    Some of the major topics that will be covered in this course are:
    • Litigation Funding – A Legal Primer
    • Recent Trends and Developments
    • Common Risks and Pitfalls
    • Best Practices
    • What Lies Ahead
