We understand that there are circumstances where there are leftover funds, for example, because your client raises funds to cover adverse costs exposure and wins or your client recovers their costs.
Any unused funds are returned to us and can then be put towards another case on CrowdJustice as elected by the Case Owner (your client), or will be donated to the Access to Justice Foundation. This is all set out in our Terms and Conditions.
These processes have been designed to be straightforward to both mitigate against risk and also to reduce the administrative burden on you and your clients. All Backers agree to our Terms and Conditions when they give, which clearly designate what happens with unused funds and this flow of funds complies with our robust anti-money laundering and fraud-prevention safeguards.
