LITIGATION FINANCING ACT

Summary

The Litigation Financing Transparency Act bans anyone from providing litigation financing in Illinois unless they are registered with the Department of Financial and Professional Regulation. It forces financiers to file detailed registration information and to include specific disclosures in financing contracts, and it lets parties in a lawsuit discover those agreements. Violations are treated as unlawful practices under the state's consumer fraud law.
