A Law Firm’s Trusted Partner for Pre-Settlement & Case Expense Financin

Founded in 2010 and based in Atlanta, Georgia and known around the nation, Capital Financing has built a reputation of innovating the Pre-Settlement (Plaintiff) and Case Expense Financing industry. Our objective has always been to identify industry challenges and then find solutions. We believe our influence helping plaintiffs and law firms with financing solutions not typically seen, has distinguished Capital Financing as a trusted partner.

‍

Pre-Settlement Financing

Capital Financing provides a “fair and responsible” solution to plaintiff financing. We were the first to offer a CAPPED interest model in 2010 when company’s continued to compound interest.  We are known as the company that TERMINATES fees in 12 months, we never charge compounding interest, and our fees CAP at a 1x multiplier of the principal amount borrowed.  We believe there is no better option.

‍

Case Expense Financing

Unlike banks or other lenders providing law firm financing with lines of credit, Capital Financing doesn’t use collateral or other personal assets to provide case expense financing.  Our model allows us to invest in the case on behalf of the plaintiff so the law firm doesn’t have to tie up their capital for years.  With tax code implications, cash flow issues caused by case expenses, and a business model that has never been challenged, Capital Financing is challenging the status quo to offer law firms a better option than using their own money or a LOC.   We believe a lawyer doesn’t need to be both the bank and a lawyer.

“JuryBall: The Big Data Revolution is Here” is a groundbreaking book that delves into the transformative power of big data and scientific methods in the field of litigation and trial law. The authors, Sean Claggett, John Campbell, and Alicia Campbell argue that by harnessing the power of data and rigorous analysis, trial outcomes can be accurately predicted and dramatically improved. The book challenges the traditional notion of law as an art form driven solely by intuition and experience. Instead, it advocates for a more scientific approach, where empirical questions are asked, tested, and answered using large datasets and systematic methods. The authors contend that this data-driven approach can help attorneys select cases, shape discovery, prepare witnesses, value cases, choose juries, and try cases with unprecedented precision and effectiveness.

‍

Throughout the book, the authors explore the emerging technologies and methods available for studying cases, provide practical guidance on working with data, and share insights from their extensive research and experience. They cover key metrics such as win rate, damages, fault, credibility, and more, offering concrete examples of how big data has turned good cases into record-breaking verdicts.

‍

The book is organized into four main sections:

‍

• The Paradigms Fundamental to Understanding and Using Big Data, which explains how a scientific, big data approach to preparing cases is changing the work of trial lawyers and argues that studying cases, improving them, and then studying them again in an iterative process will fundamentally change how lawyers work

‍

• Lessons from Data and the Modern Use of Data, where the authors explore what big data can do by working through the primary metrics measured when studying a case

‍

• Applying the Lessons: Taking the Data Off the Page and Plugging it into Your Case, which provides concrete and practical guidance on workdays, in-person focus groups, the use of experts, preparing opening statements, examination of witnesses, and closing arguments

‍

• Putting It All Together: How Big Data and Hard Work Turned a $10 Million Case into a $485 Million Verdict for Sean Claggett, offering a concrete case example of how big data turned what would typically be a $10 million case into a historic $485 million verdict

‍

Key takeaways

‍

Some key takeaways from the book include the idea that there is no universal formula or “Rosetta Stone” for winning cases, and that every case is unique and requires a tailored approach based on its specific facts, parties, and circumstances. The authors argue that attorneys should view their cases as products and the jury as the consumer market, conducting market research, testing the product, refining it based on feedback, and targeting the most receptive consumers.

They also emphasize that embracing big data does not mean disregarding the valuable lessons taught by renowned trial attorneys, but rather that data can enhance and fuel the strategies advocated by these legal luminaries.

The book stresses that attorneys cannot be great trial lawyers alone, and that they need outside perspectives to combat confirmation bias, which is especially prevalent among plaintiff attorneys. Finally, the authors highlight the growing use of big data and advanced analytics by defense firms, arguing that using big data is no longer a competitive advantage but a necessity for plaintiff attorneys who want to level the playing field.
