Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The funding of litigation is now a major factor in the property industry. This book examines new legal developments in the field in the UK. The book provides technical detail and also practical examples to ensure the manager is in a better position to negotiate with his/her lawyers. The new Court rules combined with the stated aim of Government policy of removing legal aid and at the same time ensuring access of Justice through contingency fees has meant a revolution in the manner of funding litigation. But this has meant an even more acute conflict of interest between solicitor and client because the lawyer needs to be able to recoup funding the action by taking a share of the proceeds of the claim. The commercial client needs to be aware of the parameters to negotiate the conditional fee agreement. The aim of this book is to: provide a clear outline of the meaning of conditional fees and contingency fees; provide an outline of the costs that may be payable under the new regime; provide a breakdown by way of summary of different types of legal insurance available on the open market including after the event insurance; give an overview of the fast-track, small-track and multi-track procedures; relate litigation to service charge recovery programs for residential and commercial property.

Download or read book Third Party Funding in International Arbitration written by Lisa Bench Nieuwveld and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2016-04-24 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the first edition of this invaluable book in 2012, third-party funding has become more mainstream in international arbitration practice. However, since even the existence of a third-party funding agreement in a dispute is often kept secret, it can be difficult to glean the specifics of successful funding agreements. This welcome book, now updated, expertly reveals the nuances of third-party funding in international arbitration, examines the phenomenon in key jurisdictions, and provides a reliable resource for users and potential users that may wish to tap into and make use of this distinctive funding tool. Focusing on Australia, the United Kingdom, the United States, Germany, the Netherlands, Canada, and South Africa, the authors analyze and assess the legal regime based upon legislation, judicial opinions, ethics opinions, and practitioner anecdotes describing the state of third-party funding in each jurisdiction. In addition to updating summaries of the law of the various jurisdictions, the second edition includes a new chapter addressing third-party funding in investor-state arbitration. Among the issues raised and examined are the following: · payment of adverse costs; · “Before-the-Event” (BTE) and “After-the-Event” (ATE) insurance; · attorney financing: pro bono representation, contingency representation, conditional fee arrangements; · loans; · ethical doctrines affecting the third-party funding industry; · possible future bundling, securitization, and trading of legal claims; · risk that the funder may put its own interests ahead of the client’s interests; and · whether the existence of a funding agreement must or should be disclosed to the decision maker. The second edition also includes discussion of recent institutional developments as they relate to third-party funding, including the work of the ICCA-Queen Mary Task Force on Third-Party Funding and how third-party funding is being incorporated into arbitral rules and investment treaties. Ably providing a thorough understanding of what third-party funding entails and what legal parameters exist, this book will be of compelling interest to parties aiming to take advantage of the high values, speed, reduced evidentiary costs, outcome predictability, industry expertise, and high award enforceability characteristic of the third-party funding arrangements available in international arbitration.
