  • Historically, it has generated returns of 10-13% per annum, outperforming many traditional investments.
  • This investment boasts unique security features that effectively mitigate risks, ensuring a secure income for investors.
  • As demand for funding disbursements in smaller cases rises, the litigation funding market is poised for expansion and offers new opportunities for both investors and funders.

About Fenchurch Legal 

Fenchurch Legal is a specialist litigation financier, providing disbursement funding to small-medium sized UK law firms. We provide funding for small-ticket consumer claims to cover disbursements such as expert reports and court fees which are covered by an After the Event (“ATE”) insurance policy.

Our focus on funding claims such as housing disrepair cases empowers marginalised voices, promoting access to justice. With over £38 million of loans originated across 13,000+ cases, we’ve become a trusted partner in the litigation funding market.

How It Works

  1. Fenchurch Legal provides finance to carefully vetted law firms to fund claims, secured by an ATE insurance policy.
  2. Fixed fees are charged upfront, with interest accruing during the loan term (typically 12 months).
  3. Upon successful case conclusion, the law firm repays the loan. If the case is unsuccessful, the ATE insurance policy covers the costs, ensuring loan repayment.

Our funding is structured in a way that is backed by multiple layers of security, protecting investor capital regardless of case outcomes.
