Litigation, free from the burden of financial uncertainty

In Litigation Funding, managing Litigation Risk is not just a financial or legal matter: thanks to LexCapital, you can quickly access a protection tool for businesses and professionals who wish to assert their rights without exposing themselves to excessive economic risk.

In a context like the Italian one, characterized by long delays and high uncertainty regarding the outcomes of Litigation, it is crucial to be able to count on solutions that offer stability and predictability, such as those proposed or custom-built by LexCapital.

The objective is not only to financially support a dispute, but to reduce personal or corporate exposure, make costs predictable, and allow each Client to face the Risk associated with Litigation with greater peace of mind and awareness.

Tailor-made Solutions

The evolution of the market has led to the emergence of hybrid protection tools, which combine financial, insurance, and risk management solutions to offer greater economic stability and predictability to the operators involved in a dispute.

In Litigation Funding, hybrid protection tools represent the most effective frontier for balancing risk and opportunity. Among these, ATE (After the Event) and ACI (Adverse Cost Insurance) insurance policies, for example, play a central role in protecting whoever undertakes Litigation, whether a business, professional, or private individual. These tools, when integrated into a hybrid funding model, allow for the construction of a complete protection system, with the aim of improving financial planning and Litigation governance.

LexCapital offers tailor-made solutions designed to protect your capital and support your legal strategy, whether you are a business, a professional, or a private individual.

Protect your capital and face Litigation with confidence, whatever your position.

Protection tools specifically designed to cover litigation risk

LexCapital’s proprietary platform, RischioLegale®, plays a key role by providing the actuarial and statistical foundation necessary for pricing new policies and for the proper provisioning of related technical reserves in the financial statements of the underwriting company.

ADVERSE COST INSURANCE (ACI)

This is an insurance policy that provides separate cover for legal costs should the insured party lose a court case. It differs from all the generic legal risk policies currently available on the market in that it focuses solely on a specific stage of the legal proceedings.

AFTER THE EVENT INSURANCE (ATE)

This is an insurance policy, providing full and/or partial coverage, against the financial risk of having to pay costs generally owed to the opposing party in the event of a loss, not limited to legal fees.

What they say about us

CLIENT DAMAGED BY ANTI-COMPETITIVE BEHAVIOR

Head of Legal Department

“We assigned our litigious right related to a claim for damages and LexCapital fully supported us through its network of lawyers and econometric technical consultants, advancing the related costs. If we had not opted for this solution, which allowed us to obtain the financial resources necessary to carry out the proceedings, we would have had to give up protecting our rights.” Company damaged by anti-competitive behavior
