Judgment Preservation Insurance
Protect the value of your portfolio and eliminate appellate uncertainty across multiple judgments.
How We Help
Judgment Preservation Insurance (JPI) safeguards the value of judgments and awards
pending appeal, providing a guaranteed minimum recovery if one or more are
reversed, vacated, or reduced.
JPI is typically provided today at the portfolio level—protecting multiple wins across a firm, fund, or corporate litigation portfolio. By aggregating coverage, clients achieve risk diversification, cost efficiency, and capital optimization that no other solution provides.
JPI can be paired with debt capital to allow claimholders and law firms to unlock capital backed by insurance recoveries.
Who We Help
Claimholders
Secure the value of litigation recoveries across jurisdictions. JPI turns appellate uncertainty into balance-sheet predictability.
Law Firms
De-risk contingent portfolios during the appellate phase. JPI allows firms to stabilize results, support financial planning, and pursue additional contingent matters with confidence.

How It Works
01
Portfolio Evaluation
Certum reviews the underlying judgments or awards, appellate posture, and diversification profile to determine the optimal aggregate coverage structure.
02
Policy Structuring
A single policy (or layered program) is issued to protect against reversal or reduction of the insured judgments below a defined aggregate threshold.
03
Appeal Period Coverage
If judgments are upheld, the policy expires unused; if one or more are reversed or reduced, the insurer pays according to the covered loss—preserving overall portfolio value.
04
Liquidity Options
JPI can be combined with portfolio monetization or fund-level financing, providing immediate capital secured by insured appellate outcomes
