Unresolved Litigation

In this economic climate, it is understandable that companies will not want to spend money on litigation. They want to preserve resources in lean times. However, by sitting on good claims, companies could well be missing out on the opportunity to boost their financial positions, when they need it most. Litigation doesn’t have to be expensive. Using our alternative funding models, in particular Conditional Fee Arrangements (CFAs), claims can be brought cheaply and cost-effectively and without the crunch on the balance sheet and cash-flow.

Clarke Willmott is offering organisations, a unique opportunity to review whether there is potential in any existing claims. This service will include

1. FREE audit of any claims that a company feels it might have
2. Where we think the claims have more than 50% prospect of success we will offer the company a CFA(either with hourly rates heavily discounted and subject to an agreed cap or a full CFA where no charge is made to the company for our time at all).

In this way, companies can have the benefit of high-quality, commercially-focused litigation services and bring valuable claims cost-effectively, which they would otherwise let go. We recover our fees together with an uplift from the defendant, if the claim is successful. Further, we can generally bring claims which are up to 6 years old, so companies may well be sitting on valuable dormant claims which they have left on the shelf in good times, but which could really benefit them financially now. We deal with claims which are commercial in nature – breach of contract claims, claims against directors for breaches of duty, shareholder disputes, intellectual property disputes and professional negligence claims.
