Statera Capital’s Matt Blumenstein recently participated as a panelist at the Chicago Litigation Finance Summit 2026, held on May 1, 2026 at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago.

The Chicago Litigation Finance Summit is a nonprofit, student-run conference organized by students from Northwestern University and the University of Chicago. The Summit brought together funders, judges, law firm executives, and in-house counsel for a full day of programming across fourteen panels covering the latest developments in litigation finance.
Matt participated on a panel titled “The Risk Transfer Layer: Where Verdicts Meet Underwriters,” which examined the intersection of litigation finance, contingent risk insurance, and portfolio protection strategies. The panel explored how insurance products and litigation finance are increasingly working in concert to manage and transfer risk across the lifecycle of a commercial dispute — from active litigation through post-judgment recovery. Matt was joined on the panel by Max Bernstein of CAC Group, Daniel Bond of Litica, and Jackson Schaap of Signal Peak Partners.
