London International Disputes Week (LIDW) has fast become one of the legal world’s most important dates - and this year, Shieldpay is proud to be part of the conversation.
As a sponsor and member of LIDW, we’re joining forces with legal leaders across the globe to explore the future of dispute resolution. From international arbitration to litigation funding, from tech disruption to client experience - LIDW is where it all collides.
At Shieldpay, we believe payments are the missing link in many of these conversations. They’re often overlooked - but they’re critical to security, speed and client trust in any dispute process.
Our LIDW Event: ‘Follow the Money’
On Thursday 5 June, we’re opening our doors for an in-person and virtual panel event:
Follow the Money – Payments Innovation as a Strategic Lever in Disputes
Litigators, funders, legal ops and tech specialists will join us to explore how modernising payment flows can reduce risk, increase compliance, and even unlock new commercial models in litigation.

-
Moderator: Sophie Condie, CEO, Shieldpay
-

We’ll discuss practical examples and real-world lessons from disputes and high-volume transactions - and challenge the idea that payments are just an admin afterthought.
Why It Matters
The legal sector is under increasing pressure to deliver efficiency, transparency and speed - without compromising regulatory rigour. As funders demand quicker returns and clients expect seamless experiences, the back-office matters more than ever.
At Shieldpay, we’ve built a platform that supports complex, high-volume payments with full compliance, transparency and control - giving firms and clients the confidence they need to move faster.
LIDW is a chance to show the power of that innovation in action.
Come and Meet Us
If you’re attending LIDW in person, we’d love to see you. Join us for the panel or reach out to book a meeting with our team during the week.
And if you can’t make it? We’ll share key takeaways and insights right here after the event.
Let’s stop treating payments as a footnote - and start seeing them as a strategic lever in modern legal practice.
