Oct 2023 — Present
Ignitis is an investment firm focused on legal assets, providing early-stage capital, strategic guidance, and financial stewardship for international collective redress litigation. We specialize in bridging the critical gap between case development and litigation funding—solving the classic “chicken or egg” problem where strong claims require capital before major funders are ready to invest.Our core focus is pre-filing case development. We secure funding, provide legal expertise, commission expert opinions, and shape litigation strategy for large-scale consumer redress actions. With nearly 30 years of combined litigation experience, our partners have developed more than four dozen collective redress cases across the EU and UK.We work closely with claimants, consumer associations, and legal teams to enhance case viability, streamline cross-border litigation, and drive financial efficiency. Ignitis is designed for speed and impact—ensuring strong early-stage momentum while aligning with the long-term objectives of institutional funders.The name Ignitis is derived from the Latin word for “ignite,” reflecting our mission to spark high-impact collective redress litigation throughout the UK, Europe, and beyond.
