LexShares?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>LexShares is a private litigation finance firm founded in 2014 by Jay Greenberg, a former technology investment banker, and Max Volsky, a former litigator. They have offices in Boston, Massachusetts, and New York City.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LexShares allows accredited investors to invest in commercial legal claims. The platform also emphasizes the potential for doing some good in addition to making a profit; by leveling the playing field in terms of financing lawsuits, investors are helping to make sure the outcome is based more on legal merits than which party can throw more money at the suit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-140-1024x683.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3784\" srcset=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-140-1024x683.png 1024w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-140-300x200.png 300w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-140-768x512.png 768w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-140-385x257.png 385w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-140-255x170.png 255w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-140.png 1499w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-does-lexshares-work\"><strong>How does LexShares work?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Investors in LexShares are essentially helping to finance parties involved in commercial litigation in return for a share of any capital awarded as an outcome of a lawsuit. If a lawsuit is decided positively for the party funded through LexShares, investors will see a return on their investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any plaintiff or attorney who thinks their case fits LexShares\u2019 criteria can apply to receive financing &#8211; typically for no more than 10% of the expected financial recovery. For example, if the plaintiff is claiming $10 million in damages, LexShares might invest $1 million.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The LexShares legal team thoroughly vets all the cases that are submitted to them. This helps the firm minimize the risk of a bad investment. Less than 5% of all cases reviewed by the experienced investments team at LexShares are approved for funding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are two different ways that you can invest with LexShares:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>You can invest in individual lawsuits, pre-vetted by LexShares, as they become available on the platform (although they typically fund within minutes, so you have to be quick).<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>You can invest in their LexShares Marketplace Fund II, which serves like a hedge fund. Investor money is locked in for seven years, and a manager directs the investments of the fund.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Who can invest with LexShares?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Only accredited individuals* are eligible to invest with LexShares. The platform is, however, open to international investors, rather than being limited to US residents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\">*The current SEC definition of an\u00a0accredited investor\u00a0includes those who have a net worth of $1 million or more, those who have a yearly income of $200,000 (or $300,000 when combined with a spouse), and those that hold certain professional licenses.<\/mark><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='where-lexshares-gets-it-right' class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"whereGetsItRight\">Where LexShares gets it right<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Invest starting at $2,500<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In order to invest in the pre-vetted individual lawsuits offered on the LexShares platform, investors only need to chip in $2,500; for a platform catering to accredited investors only, this is a pretty low starting price. Many other platforms for accredited investors require many times that amount to get started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Basically no correlation to the stock market<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Litigation financing is an excellent way to\u00a0diversify your portfolio. With a very low correlation to the stock market, your investment with LexShares will be unaffected by market volatility<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Average investment time period of 15 months<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With an average reported time of 15 months from the investment of capital to the resolution of a case, LexShares provides investors with a relatively quick turnaround time on their money when they invest in individual lawsuits. Many asset classes, like real estate or startups, require much longer time periods (think 5-10 years) in order to see a return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Potentially high returns<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LexShares invests a maximum of 10% of the expected recovery, which means that with each resolved litigation case, LexShares typically stands to earn 2x &#8211; 5x of the initial investment. Their reported metrics indicate a 70% win rate for resolved investments, and a median IRR of 47%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='where-lexshares-could-do-better' class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"whereCouldDoBetter\">Where LexShares could do better<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Individual lawsuit offerings go quickly<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since there\u2019s no steady supply of viable litigation, new cases are posted to the website irregularly and they sell out quickly, sometimes in minutes. This means that even if you\u2019re an accredited investor and you\u2019ve got the $2,500 needed to invest, you could still run into difficulties actually being able to make an investment on LexShares.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>No secondary market<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While litigation financing has plenty of unique advantages, one big disadvantage is that there is no open market for resale of your investment. Once you\u2019ve put your money in, you simply have to wait and see what happens. Only when the lawsuit you\u2019ve invested in has been resolved will you get a return (if any). In the case of the Marketplace Fund offered by LexShares, you\u2019re looking at an even longer time frame before you can see a return on your investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Open to accredited investors only<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>LexShares is currently only open to accredited investors, which makes this platform inaccessible to a large number of potential investors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>High investment minimum for managed fund<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the minimum investment for individual lawsuits is just $2,500, the minimum for investing in the LexShares Marketplace Fund is 100x that at $250,000. Obviously this is a much steeper entry price, and may put an investment in the fund out of the reach of some investors, even if they\u2019re accredited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='can-you-really-make-money-on-lexshares' class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"canYouReallyMakeMoneyOn\">Can you really make money on LexShares?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Definitely. According to LexShares\u2019 reported metrics, they have a 70% win rate for resolved investments, and a median IRR of 47%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-141.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3813\" srcset=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-141.png 1000w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-141-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-141-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-141-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-141-257x257.png 257w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-141-170x170.png 170w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-141-350x350.png 350w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-141-60x60.png 60w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-141-15x15.png 15w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-do-i-make-money-with-lexshares\"><strong>How do I make money with LexShares?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>If you\u2019re investing in individual cases through Lexshares, you make money like this:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When a LexShares backed plaintiff receives monetary compensation as a result of winning or settling the case, LexShares gets a portion of the winnings. Money is then disbursed to each investor, and LexShares earns a part of this return as carried interest (share of profits).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Alternatively, when investing in the managed fund offered through LexShares, it goes like this:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first 36 months of this litigation finance fund will be the investment period, where the collected capital is invested in approved lawsuits. The harvest period comes afterward, and the returns of every case resolved during this period are immediately redistributed among every litigation funder. This fund will not reuse\/recycle capital from resolved cases.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How do I cash out with LexShares?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cashing out of LexShares happens after a case is concluded. Whichever way you made your investment (whether ACH or wire transfer), any proceeds as a result of litigation, assuming the litigation is successful, will be transferred back to you in the same way.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>LexShares vs traditional investing<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Because LexShares deals in litigation finance, investments made through the platform have a very low correlation with the stock market and are a potentially great way to diversify your portfolio. It\u2019s important to note, however, that there is zero secondary market for this type of investment, so you have essentially no liquidity on your investment\u2014you simply have to wait until the conclusion of a case to see a return, and there is no standard time limit for litigation. On the other hand, their historical returns from successfully litigated cases are much higher than the standard 10% benchmark we use when discussing the stock market as a whole.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, LexShares could be a great, and highly lucrative, complement to a more traditional stocks\/bonds mix, but is a very different sort of investment and should come with different expectations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:50%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"693\" src=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-142-1024x693.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3814\" srcset=\"https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-142-1024x693.png 1024w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-142-300x203.png 300w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-142-768x520.png 768w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-142-380x257.png 380w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-142-251x170.png 251w, https:\/\/moneymade.io\/learn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-142.png 1098w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:25%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id='what-other-people-are-saying-about-lexshares' class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-other-people-are-saying-about-lexshares\">What other people are saying about LexShares<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There isn\u2019t much in the way of customer feedback to be found, but professional publication-sponsored reviewers generally rate LexShares highly, pointing to the ease of use of the platform, excellent customer service, and impressive educational resources available for investors.

Since litigation finance is largely unaffected by market trends, and resolved cases have the potential for large returns in a relatively short amount of time, the upsides can outweigh the risks for many investors. However, remember that if the plaintiff loses, you risk losing out on your entire investment, and that investing in LexShares means locking in your money for a fixed period. Those that are very risk-averse or unwilling to invest in an asset without a secondary market will want to look elsewhere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"howDoISignUpFor\">I\u2019m in!
