Parabellum functions as a trusted financial partner for lawyers and corporate claimants who seek to share or mitigate litigation risk. We can show law firms how to scale their contingency practices reliably and easily. Our varied financing products can enable corporate clients with strong claims to pursue cases that might otherwise have been left behind due to prohibitive costs or capital constraints. And our investing is non-recourse; we only get paid if our clients win. Parabellum is also the industry's most experienced and trusted legal finance capital partner. In 2006, our principals founded the Legal Risk Strategies & Finance business at Credit Suisse, the first institutional commercial litigation finance business in the United States.Since that time, we have continued to refine our approach, which is represented by a few straightforward yet important principles—principles by which we live every day. These principles are: 1) working only with the highest-quality partners; 2) seeking to share risk and align interests among all parties; 3) investing only in meritorious claims; 4) complying with all applicable ethical rules; and 5) being highly sensitive to considerations of confidentiality and legal privileges.Finally, we at Parabellum strive to mitigate or minimize legal, economic, reputational, and collection risks for all invested partners by implementing careful underwriting and case-selection processes, as well as rigorous portfolio construction and monitoring.
