CHICAGO — Statera Capital’s Stewart Ackerly recently participated as a panelist at the IMN Litigation Finance conference in New York on June 10, 2026. The annual IMN conference draws leading lawyers, funders, investors, and other professionals from across the litigation finance industry.
Stewart served as a panelist on “Beyond the Ruling: Innovative Structures for Award Monetization,” a discussion focused on the practical and often underappreciated challenges that arise after a settlement or judgment is achieved. The panel — which also featured Lisa Richman of McDermott Will & Schulte LLP and Mahendra Nambiar of Rocade Capital — tackled the question of what tools litigants and funders need to protect and collect value once a dispute is resolved. Key themes included navigating complex settlement dynamics after a judgment is issued; the importance of accounting for (and pricing) for unique risks in the post-judgment context; and the strategic calculus of whether to pursue an appeal after a favorable outcome.
