Portfolio finance in Illinois.

Permitted

Portfolio-level financing requests for Illinois case inventories (revolving facilities, portfolio purchases, NAV lending, and co-investment), evaluated on court records.

Funding Posture

Illinois is a major market for portfolio-level litigation finance. Criterica Capital prepares financing requests for consideration by independent capital providers, with attention to the applicable professional-responsibility rules. Chicago's status as a national commercial and class action center drives heavy demand for capital sized against a firm's full case inventory rather than any single matter.

Illinois Legal Market

Chicago anchors one of the nation's largest legal markets, with significant activity downstate. Mass tort, consumer and BIPA class actions, products liability, personal injury, and commercial litigation give Illinois firms deep, diversified inventories — BIPA claims in particular tend to arrive in volume, making them well suited to a revolving facility structured around aggregate class inventory.
