The Efficacy of Choice-of-Law and Forum Selection Provisions in Third-Party Litigation Funding Contracts

* Associate Editor, Cardozo Law Review. J.D. Candidate (June 2020), Benjamin N. Cardozo School of Law; C.C.S., Westminster Theological Seminary, 2003; B.A., Rutgers University, 1995. Thank you to Professor Anthony J. Sebok, who not only inspired and shepherded this project, but who has become someone I count a good friend. To my Notes Editor, Raquel Wildes Genet, for your help and encouragement. Thanks also to Professors Gary Galperin, Michael Pollack, and David Rudenstine, who believed in my capacity to be a lawyer despite my misgivings. And to Dean Carey Bertolet-Grand, for advocating for me to the end. Finally, love and gratitude to my family, especially my wife, Gayle, and my eleven-year-old son, Isaac—without your support I would not have made it through law school.
