To democratise access to justice by providing innovative, flexible and responsible litigation funding - enabling more people to pursue their claims through trusted law firms.
A smarter approach to funding litigation
Litigation plays a vital role in protecting rights, resolving disputes and holding parties to account – but it is also resource-intensive and unpredictable. For many law firms, the cost of disbursements, expert evidence and case preparation can limit capacity or slow growth.
Sandfield Capital bridges that gap.
Our funding enables law firms to progress viable claims without diverting working capital or taking on disproportionate risk. Whether supporting disbursements, funding individual cases or structuring portfolio arrangements, we help firms unlock predictable, sustainable pathways to justice.
Our approach is built around three principles:
Responsible – we fund sound claims with clear legal grounds and ethical integrity
Regulated – as an FCA-authorised firm, we operate to the highest standards of conduct and transparency
Resilient – our insurance-backed structure provides stability and confidence for complex or high-volume litigation
The result is a funding relationship centred on clarity, communication and long-term support.

Introduction
How we work
Funding should be straightforward.
Our process is designed to be efficient, transparent and supportive – enabling law firms to retain full control of litigation strategy and client relationships while benefiting from structured funding and risk support.
From initial review through to funding approval, insurance protection and ongoing case progression, we work collaboratively with our partner firms at every stage.
Our commitment to access to justice
Responsible litigation funding plays an important social role.
Many claims struggle to proceed due to the cost of expert evidence, court fees or case preparation. By removing those barriers, funding helps ensure that viable claims are not abandoned simply because of affordability.
Sandfield Capital works with law firms who share our belief that accountability, fairness and justice should not depend on a claimant’s financial means — while ensuring funding decisions remain proportionate, ethical and sustainable
