NEW US COMMERCIAL COMMITMENTS (2025)
$2.8B
As of Mar 1, 2026
Commercial litigation funders committed $2.8 billion in new U.S. capital in 2025. Mass-tort case acquisition runs on this money: firms borrow at rates commonly 15–40% annually to fund the advertising that finds claimants, then repay from fees when cases resolve.
Funding is non-recourse to you — the funder is paid from attorney fees, not your recovery, in most structures. But funding costs shape firm behavior: long delays compound borrowing costs, which is one reason resolution timelines matter to everyone in the chain.
