We are expanding our financing spectrum

You have known FORIS as a litigation funder in the medium-sized sector for over 25 years. Now, together with our partners, we have launched our first publicly traded litigation fund (FORIS Centris Prozessfinanzierungsfonds I).

This strategic step significantly increases both our financial and geographic spectrum for the funding of cases. From now on we are able to fund significantly more cases with dispute values even in excess of 100 million Euros.

What does this mean for you?

You can now request funding of significantly larger disputes. Our services now cover a claim size range which is unrivalled in the market - from EUR 100,000 to more than EUR 100 million.

Advantages for you

 

  • Fast decision-making processes, even for large-volume financing enquiries
  • Direct exchange with the FORIS team in charge, all located in Germany
  • Flexible financing and remuneration models for litigating lawyers
  • Case documents in German, English or French (no translation required)

What is changing?

Regardless of whether the individual case is financed by FORIS itself or by the new fund, customer support will stay with FORIS. In the future, this means that our processes will remain fast, efficient and unbureaucratic with our long known familiar faces.

Key aspects

  • Arbitration proceedings - ICC / LCIA / SCC / SIAC / DIS / IAC / ICSID etc.
  • General and international commercial law
  • IP law
  • Antitrust and competition law
  • Commercial and corporate law

The easiest way is to call us:

We will then discuss the key facts of the case in dispute and the necessary documents with you over the phone.

Alternatively, you may also send the legal case documents directly by email to info@remove-this.foris.com. Furthermore, we are pleased to provide an upload link for larger data sets. 

Ideally, please forward us as much relevant information on the case as possible. Any outstanding issues will be addressed in the prelimenary review.

Case assessment
Case assessment

Case assessment

Following a favourable preliminary review, we will assess in detail the merits of your case and determine if it is generally suitable for a funding proposition. This includes not only a legal review, but also economic, strategic or practical considerations.

During this phase, we conduct a comprehensive review of all relevant documents, which includes close collaboration with you or your client to ensure a smooth process.

Funding agreement

Funding agreement

Once the financing review has been completed in your favour, we will proceed with negotiating a litigation funding agreement with the claimant and yourself. The funding agreement includes the financial conditions, including revenue sharing and cost budgets.

Depending on the financing requirements, the decission of who will ultimately finance the case, FORIS itself or the fund, will be made on the case-by-case basis.

The funding agreement is then finalised between the claimant and FORIS AG.

 

 

Transfer to the fund

If financing via the fund was agreed, the funding agreement would be assigned to the fund, without any changes to the agreed terms. Such assignment will of course have been agreed on with the fund in advance.
