David Perla, named a 2011 ABA Journal Legal Rebel, is featured in its Legal Rebels Updates, this time as Burford Managing Director. The article begins by highlighting that “David Perla hasn’t let his innovator shoes collect any dust in the last 14 years,” before going on to quote Mr. Perla about his role at Burford:
“What I’ve done in the past has really been to try and help clients in the legal space, leveraging asset classes that historically haven’t been leveraged… And here, what was so appealing to me about Burford is that we’re leveraging capital—which is the most leverageable asset, probably, of any asset class—to put capital to work, to help law firms and corporations solve challenges.”
