Maureen Ward on Litigation Finance in Lexpert

Maureen Ward comments on the state of litigation financing in Canada in a feature story in Lexpert magazine. She predicts “it’s going to become increasingly mainstream in Canada, especially on large, complex commercial cases. We’ve all seen cases that we think have merit but where the client just didn’t want to take the risk, no matter how small . . . I think litigation funding is a great new thing that provides access to justice not just for the little guy, but also for sophisticated commercial parties.”
