New research: How in-house lawyers are turning legal liabilities into assets

Facing a pandemic and global downturn, in-house lawyers are finding new ways to generate revenue for their companies.

This webcast highlights key findings from Burford’s new research, the 2020 Legal Finance Report, based on 499 online surveys of in-house and law firm lawyers and 29 in-depth interviews of leading lawyers across seven countries. Legal finance is an increasingly important tool that in-house lawyers are using to monetize legal assets and manage the cost and risk of pursuing valuable and meritorious claims.

A panel of experts highlight the research and the trends it reveals about how companies are turning legal liabilities into assets:

• Rufus Caine, Vice President, Burford Capital
• Ari Kaplan, Principal, Ari Kaplan Advisors
• Christiane Deniger, Vice President, Burford Capital

Together they discuss how legal departments are adding value and strategizing for the future as they navigate uncertain economic conditions and unprecedented internal responsibilities.
