GALACTIC LITIGATION
PARTNERS LLC
Our Mission
Galactic was formed in 2015 with the primary purpose of creating a portfolio of dispute finance investments to be diversified by duration, claim type, financial support needed and potential awards.
The Executives
The Executive Officers of the company, including Fredrick Schulman and Jerald Belofsky, are responsible for sourcing, evaluating, negotiating and monitoring the investments. The Company has already invested millions of dollars in multiple cases and actively reviews additional investment opportunities.
Litigation Financing.
Litigation Financing is a mechanism through which litigants can finance their legal costs through a third party funding company in order to support their financial obligations during a litigation or arbitration claim. These third party companies provide loans for legal fees and related costs (as well as security for counterparty costs), in exchange for preferential participation including a percentage share of the judgment or settlement.
