Judges Argue Legal Finance Disclosure is Unnecessary for Justice

At the ILFA 2024 conference, a panel of judges emphasized that mandatory legal finance disclosure is unnecessary and could harm litigation efficiency. Judges highlighted that such disclosure rarely addresses conflicts of interest and disrupts case strategy. They advocated for in-camera reviews when needed, ensuring fair legal proceedings without hindering business claims. This dialogue reinforces the role of litigation finance in leveling the playing field in complex cases, particularly without forcing unnecessary disclosure.
