In coverage of Burford’s 2018 Litigation Finance Survey, Lawyers Weekly points out that 83% of Australian respondents believe legal finance is increasingly important in the business of law. Additionally, 72% of Australian respondents assert that they are likely to use legal finance in the next two years. Chris Bogart is cited in the article: “Clearly [the data] shows an appetite in the Australian legal market for increased use of litigation finance and an increased appreciation for its potential benefits… there appears to be a burgeoning client demand for litigation finance of non-class action commercial litigation.”
