The litigation funding market is increasingly crowded but Harbour stands out as one of a handful of providers who are reliable, commercial and pragmatic in their approach.
— Paul Worth, Joint Head of Litigation Eversheds Sutherland
You are dealing with professionals who both understand the ups and downs of litigation, but also have the commercial awareness of which cases are likely to work for them.
— Richard Leedham, Mishcon de Reya
Often in funding matters, timing and responsiveness is vital. I have always found the Harbour team alive to these issues, and committed to prompt turnaround.
— Chambers and Partners 2022
They operate at the Rolls-Royce end of the market, funding serious cases with staff who can actually add value in the context of litigation. It's very useful to have a litigation funder who does not back seat drive. They bring very useful and objective solutions.
— Chambers & Partners 2020
They have real depth of experience in funding group claims, better than other funders for the UK. Real experts in that area.
— Chambers & Partners 2020
Harbour are like royalty. Very, very good, very polished and very sophisticated. They give you a very quick turnaround, and get cases in and out the door. The thing I like about them is that when they are not interested, they give you a quick no.
— Chambers & Partners 2020
They are experienced and know their market, which really helps when they are in front of clients. They also have a track record with which many of the newer funders struggle to compete.
— Paul Worth, Joint Head of Litigation Eversheds Sutherland
Harbour is not afraid to talk about out-of-the-box commercial agreements and to bring in other high-end firms who can add value to the process in Australia. Sophisticated and high-end funding, very complex cases. Love their thinking and their ingenuity.
— Chambers & Partners 2020
We don’t see Harbour as just funders – we see them as business partners – and that we are in the case together to get the best result for the clients (or the class).
— Johnson Winter & Slattery
Impeccable reputation in the marketplace.
— Chambers & Partners 2019
Never met a funder so involved – they work hand in glove with their clients.
— Chambers & Partners 2019
Early on, thought-through decisions are reached about cases which means minimum frustration for clients. As cases progress the team are always willing to discuss any aspect while maintaining the correct distance.
— Richard Leedham, Mishcon de Reya
They listen to what you say, then form their own view and put in a realistic contingency to use if needed.
— Chambers & Partners 2019
The perfect funder needs to be somewhere between a traditional lawyer and a hedge fund manager. It’s essential to have a legal understanding yet to be very commercial.
— Ben Williams, King & Spalding
