The financial crisis in the subprime market has led to an unprecedented wave of regulatory inquiries and private litigation, already involving numerous theories of liability and very diverse causes of action. The result is a series of complex cases that can be expensive to litigate and may ultimately turn on evidence generated from the electronic discovery process. With the stakes so high, organizations involved in subprime litigation are turning to providers with experience with large complex litigation in general and subprime lending-related litigation in particular. And few, if any, providers have more relevant experience than Encore.

Subprime cases are extremely complex; mortgage holders, banks, mortgage companies, real estate brokers, title companies, shareholders, government and regulatory agencies, state attorneys general and bond rating agencies may be involved, even in the same matter.

Encore can provide legal, project and technical knowledge and experience to cases involving:

• SEC (or other government) investigations
• Shareholder class actions
• Borrower class actions
• Commercial contract disputes
• Employment class actions
• Bankruptcies

And fraud or negligence claims related to:

• Slack underwriting standards
• Lack of internal accounting controls
• Failure to disclose risk
• Violation of disclosure requirements
• Resultant stock drops
