Testimony on Third Party Financing of Lawsuits
Greetings. I thank the committee for giving me the opportunity to provide feedback on bills S. 3911 and A. 8966. My name is Maya Steinitz, and I am a Professor of Law at the University of Iowa College of Law and a Visiting Professor at Harvard Law School for both Spring and Fall of 2018. Third party litigation financing is one of my main fields of expertise as an academic. I have published papers regarding Third Party financing of both domestic and international disputes, and have written extensively regarding the set up and design of litigation financing contracts.
