The Manolete model successfully aligns the interests of the IPs and their lawyers, and we form a powerful partnership. The IP and the estate are always fully protected by a complete indemnity. We ensure meritorious claims are pursued and resolved in order to maximise returns for the Insolvent Estate.
We have recovered over £152m (before costs) from over 1000 completed cases.
More than 90% of cases are purchased/assigned rather than funded. Manolete never receives a penny in profit until the case is resolved. Creditor Estates receive between 50% and 90% of net returns.
The vast majority of Manolete cases are settled before trial. We have won cases in the High Court, Court of Appeal and the Supreme Court.

Our claim against Hastings Borough Council went all the way to the Supreme Court with a successful judgment. The case arose out of the council’s exercise of its emergency powers to restrict public access to Hastings Pier. This action caused loss and damage to Stylus Sports Ltd and Manolete, as assignee, brought a claim for compensation. Manolete won in the High Court, Court Appeal and Supreme Court.
