Businesses and executives

Funding a business dispute.

Hello Justice pays your company’s lawyer’s fees in a dispute worth at least €100,000, against a solvent opposing party. Our commission is taken from the sums recovered, only in the event of success.

What you get.

  • Your cash flow.

    Hello Justice pays the lawyer’s fees, on the agreed dates. Your company does not advance them and keeps its cash for its business.

  • Your profit and loss.

    Without funding, your company pays the lawsuit’s fees whatever the outcome. With funding, it repays nothing to Hello Justice if the case fails. The accounting treatment of the arrangement is a matter for its accountant.

  • Your lawyer and your decisions.

    You keep your usual lawyer, or we refer you to a specialised partner lawyer. Strategy, a settlement or a withdrawal remain your company’s decisions.

Funding for your case.

How funding works.

  1. Step 1

    Free

    You test the dispute’s eligibility.

    You answer a few questions about the dispute, the amount at stake and the opposing party, to see whether it is the kind we fund.
  2. Step 2

    Free

    You submit the case.

    A specialised partner lawyer reviews the features of the dispute, the limitation period (the time limit for bringing a claim), whether the documents are complete and the reasonable prospects of success. Not every case is accepted.
  3. Step 3

    Flat fee

    We analyse the case.

    We look at the amount at stake, the opposing party’s ability to pay, and the length and cost of the proceedings. Your company receives a written report and a funding opinion, favourable or not.
  4. Step 4

    Agreement

    Your company signs with its lawyer and Hello Justice.

    This three‑way agreement sets the fees we pay the lawyer and our commission.
  5. Step 5

    On success

    The lawyer runs the proceedings.

    Hello Justice pays the fees on the agreed dates. Proceedings usually last two to four years, sometimes longer.
