Claims asserted (or being asserted) between private or corporate counterparties, whether Italian or foreign, or against Public Authority and Sovereign States, are assignable.
Claims arising from bankruptcy proceedings against both private and public entities are also assignable.
Assignable claims are assessed in any matter, on the condition that the litigation claim may be quantified or quantifiable in money terms.
Libra always undertakes a preliminary evaluation of the case, without costs, issuing an assessment of the assignability of the claim and the assignment fee.
In the event of an agreement on the terms of assignment, Libra takes care of every aspect of the transaction, from the finalisation of the contract to the handover of the claim documentation.

Step by step

The Claims Purchase Procedure
Assignment of Claims

Request to Purchase the Claim or Assignment of the Claim - Preliminary Assessment

Libra collects the request to purchase the claim. A confidentiality agreement is signed.
 Libra undertakes a preliminary assessment of the case. Libra formulates a pre-proposal for assignment, quantifying the amount and requirements for finalisation, within 10 days of the request. The customer evaluates the proposal and, within 15 days of receiving the pre-proposal for assignment, communicates its potential acceptance. Consequently, the customer instructs Libra to structure the assignment.

Due Diligence - Final Proposal - Purchase of the Claim or Assignment of the Litigation

Libra's experts carry out due diligence on the documentation proving the right asserted, aimed, among other things, at verifying the validity of the right asserted and the counterparty's solvency. 
In the event of a positive outcome and compliance with the preliminary analysis, Libra formulates, within 15 days of acceptance of the pre-proposal for assignment, the proposal for final assignment, preparing the necessary documentation, inviting the Client to sign the agreements, providing the disclosures and acquiring the complete claim file.

Payment of remuneration

Once the signing and delivery of the documents has been completed, Libra will make payment of the agreed fee within 3 working days.
Libra will then coordinate the commencement of the procedure, the takeover of the outstanding litigation, in favour of the assignee of the claim.
