Litigation Funding

Funded recovery actions that remove upfront legal cost, with returns aligned to the outcome achieved.

Service overview

What this service covers

For meritorious claims where cost is the barrier rather than the merits, UDRA arranges litigation funding so that recovery can proceed without upfront legal spend. Funding is assessed case by case, and the commercial terms are agreed transparently before any action begins.

Who this service is for

Creditors with strong claims but constrained legal budgets
Businesses unwilling to expense uncertain litigation cost
Insolvency practitioners pursuing recoveries for creditors
Clients holding judgments requiring funded enforcement

Key challenges addressed

The problems this service is built to resolve

Upfront cost blocking valid claims

Sound claims are abandoned because the legal spend cannot be justified against uncertain timing.

Balance-sheet impact of legal spend

Expensing litigation cost against uncertain recovery distorts reported performance.

Assessing prospects objectively

Internal optimism about a claim rarely survives independent underwriting.

Opaque funding terms

Poorly structured arrangements leave the creditor with little of the eventual recovery.
