Florida Senate panel advances litigation funding bill

Florida is not alone in seeking to regulate third-party litigation financing. Several states, including Arizona, Colorado, Georgia, Kansas, Montana, and Oklahoma, adopted measures in 2025 requiring disclosure of litigation financing agreements and limiting funders’ influence over case strategy. Georgia’s SB 69, for example, requires funders to register with the state, allows their agreements to be discoverable, and bars them from influencing settlements. Colorado’s HB 25‑1329 targets foreign funders specifically, mandating disclosure to the attorney general and prohibiting interference with attorneys or settlements. Kansas law similarly requires disclosure of foreign-linked funding to judges.
