Debut Of Litigation Finance Firm BlueWhite Legal Capital Marks Latest Jules Kroll Venture, Leveraging Decades Of Legal And Business Success

BlueWhite is led by its four principals: Jules Kroll, Aaron Rubinstein, Earl Doppelt, and Jack Blackburn. Each brings unparalleled experience at the highest levels of business, law, and finance:
- Jules Kroll pioneered the business intelligence industry. He is the founder of K2 Intelligence, Kroll Bond Ratings, cybersecurity firm BlueVoyant, and Kroll Inc. He is currently the Chairman of Kroll Bond Ratings and K2 Intelligence. K2 Intelligence, which is an intelligence, investigations, and asset recovery firm, is one of the strategic owners of BlueWhite.
- Aaron Rubinstein, most recently a partner at Arnold & Porter Kaye Scholer LLP, chaired the Kaye Scholer litigation practice for more than a decade.
- Earl Doppelt was formerly a senior executive and general counsel of several major multinational corporations, including The Dun & Bradstreet Corporation, The Nielsen Corporation, and Walter Energy, Inc.
- Jack Blackburn is a former Wall Street executive with experience in litigation finance, having spent his career with Freddie Mac, Citicorp, Merrill Lynch & Co., and Burford Capital.
The Company’s strategy will focus on commercial litigation, with specific targeted areas to include breach of contract, securities, M&A, antitrust, fraud, breach of duty, bankruptcy, intellectual property, and asset recovery. BlueWhite’s strategic relationship with corporate investigations firm K2 Intelligence is expected to provide a distinct advantage with respect to matters that involve tracing hidden assets and enforcing legal judgments. BlueWhite will target average initial litigation finance commitments between $5 and $15 million, while maintaining the flexibility to evaluate each matter on its own merits and, where appropriate, provide financing outside of this range. The collective experience and expertise of its principals and its relationship with K2 Intelligence will enable BlueWhite to be a highly effective strategic partner to lawyers, corporate executives, and other claimants.
