LITIGATION ASSISTANCE
FUND
The Litigation Assistance Fund (LAF) is a
non-profit charitable trust for which the
Law Society acts as trustee. Since 1992
it has provided funding assistance to
approximately 1,500 civil claimants.
LAF receives applications for funding
assistance from solicitors on behalf of
civil claimants seeking compensation/
damages who are unable to meet the
fees and/or disbursements of prosecuting
their claim. The applications are
subjected to a means test and a merits
test. Two different forms of funding exist –
Disbursements Only Funding (DOF) and
Full Funding.
LAF funds itself by receiving a relatively
small portion of the monetary proceeds
(usually damages) achieved by the
claimants whom it assists. Claimants who
received DOF funding repay the amount
received, plus an uplift of 100% on that
amount. Claimants who received Full
Funding repay the amount received, plus
15% of their damages. This ensures LAF’s
ability to continue to provide assistance
to claimants.
LAF recommends considering whether
applying to LAF is the best course in the
circumstances of the claim. There may be
better methods of obtaining funding/
representation. For example, all Funding
Agreements with LAF give LAF certain
rights including that funding can be
withdrawn and/or varied.
For further information, please visit
the Law Society’s website or contact
Annie MacRae on 8229 0263.
