What Is Litigation Financing for Sponsors?

Litigation financing allows third parties to provide funding for legal cases. In return, they may receive a share of the awarded claims if the case is won. But why would anyone fund a lawsuit?

The answer is simple. Many individuals and businesses can’t afford the high costs of legal action. Without external support, they’re often forced to give up on their rights entirely. Litigation financing steps in right here. Empowering claimants to pursue justice, regardless of their financial background.

“As a sponsor with AEQUIFIN, you benefit from complete transparency and control over your commitments. With tools like our litigation cost calculator and additional funding insights, you can make informed decisions and strategically support promising legal actions—making this one of the most accessible and data-driven alternative investments available today.”

Why Is It Worth Supporting Legal Cases?

The funding of legal cases offers financial opportunities as the primary incentive. However, litigation financing also allows you to actively contribute to a fairer society. Especially in complex cases or when legal expenses are high, third-party funding is often essential.

Those who choose litigation financing benefit from a unique combination of financial potential and societal value.

Attractive Return on Investment

Litigation financing offers an exceptional opportunity for sponsors. Successful cases have the potential to generate a multiple return on the amount invested. This makes litigation financing one of the most attractive ways to become financially involved in legal proceedings.

Compared to traditional forms of litigation funding, such as loans or insurance models, sponsors on AEQUIFIN have the advantage of being directly involved in the proceeds of the case. While conventional financing solutions typically come with fixed, high interest rates or fees, this is not the case here. You benefit from a comparatively high share of the awarded amounts.

The amount of the potential payout is calculated based on a number of defined factors, including the chances of success of the case and the agreed participation rate. By using our litigation cost calculator, you can obtain realistic estimates of potential returns and make an informed decision regarding your sponsorship. Our litigation cost calculator takes into account factors such as the amount in dispute, the number of plaintiffs, the opposing party, and other elements to accurately determine the costs of the legal process.

Social Impact & Fairness in the Legal System

Court costs can quickly become a significant financial burden and present claimants with insurmountable obstacles. But when it comes to asserting one’s rights, financial uncertainty should not be a disqualifying factor. By funding legal cases, you enable affected individuals to pursue their claims—even when they lack the means to do so themselves.

Today, many private individuals and companies forgo legitimate lawsuits simply because legal fees are too high and the financial risk seems unbearable. Litigation financing provides a solution.

Litigation Financing as an Alternative to Legal Aid

Not everyone qualifies for state-funded legal aid. The government only pays if the person has very little money and the case has a good chance of success. However, these requirements are often impossible to meet—especially for average earners. Many people who cannot afford to take a case to court are therefore left without state support and must give up on their rights.

This is where litigation financing comes into play. Unlike government-funded legal aid, private legal funding is not subject to strict conditions. It offers a flexible way to financially support legal disputes. Thanks to private sponsors, even those without public assistance now have the opportunity to bring their cases to court. This ensures that justice is no longer a matter of money.

General Requirements for Legal Aid

  • You cannot afford the legal process or can only pay in installments.
  • The court case must have a reasonable chance of success—the court decides this.
  • You would pursue the case even without legal aid, if you could afford it.
  • There is no legal insurance covering your issue.
  • The costs are not covered by a third party (e.g. tenants’ association, union, social organization).
  • There are no fixed income or asset limits. Instead, the court examines how much money you have each month and which fixed expenses—such as rent, insurance, or installment payments must be deducted from that amount.

There are no fixed rules regarding how much you can earn or own. Instead, an assessment is made based on your monthly income and which fixed expenses—such as rent, insurance, or installment payments—must be deducted.

Example Income Limits for Legal Aid Eligibility
  • Single, not employed, without children: less than €619
  • Single, employed, with a 10-year-old child: less than €1,330
  • Family with one employed parent, partner not employed, with a 3-year-old child: less than €1,913
  • Family with two children (ages 3 & 11), both partners employed: less than €1,723
