    We have represented a survivor of modern slavery on a pro bono basis in a successful appeal to the First-Tier Tribunal (Social Entitlement Chamber) challenging a decision of the Criminal Injuries Compensation Authority (CICA), resulting in one of the largest UK criminal injuries compensation awards for a modern slavery survivor.After a 26-year period of enslavement, the client (Mr A) applied for compensation from the CICA, a public body that compensates victims of violent crimes in Great Britain. In 2020 the application was rejected, which is when we began representing Mr A, initially in a request for a review of the CICA's decision, and then in a necessary appeal to the First-Tier Tribunal.The Tribunal awarded Mr A over £352,000 as compensation for all Mr A’s injuries and his past and future loss of earnings resulting from that. According to the charity Anti Trafficking and Labour Exploitation Unit (ATLEU), the award represents one of the highest amounts of compensation to have been awarded to a survivor of modern slavery under the CICA’s Scheme.Our pro bono team comprised partner Christopher Stothers, associate Liam Symonds, and trainee Wannisa Johnston, as well as legal solutions specialist Adil Khan, former partner Jane Jenkins, former senior associate Vanessa Medina and former paralegal Hannah V. The team instructed James Robottom of Matrix Chambers. Learn more: https://okt.to/0mul5t

FAQs

What are contingent value rights in the UK? ›

A type of right given to shareholders of the offeree entitling them to additional consideration upon the occurrence of one or more specified events.

Do contingent value rights expire? ›

Just like options, all CVRs have an expiration date. No additional benefit is paid to the shareholder other than the stock itself if the CVR expires.

What is an example of a CVR? ›

An example of CVR is the AOL-Time Warner merger, where the CVR gave AOL shareholders the right to receive additional shares of Time Warner stock if certain performance targets were met.

How does CVR work? ›

In corporate finance, Contingent Value Rights (CVR) are rights granted by an acquirer to a company's shareholders, facilitating the transaction where some uncertainty is inherent. CVRs may be separately tradeable securities; they are occasionally acquired (or shorted) by specialized hedge funds.

What is the main advantage of contingent valuation? ›

The contingent valuation method (CVM) is used to estimate economic values for all kinds of ecosystem and environmental services. The method has great flexibility, allowing valuation of a wider variety of non-market goods and services than is possible with any other non-market valuation technique.

What is a CVR in M&A? ›

The contingent value right (CVR), an instrument committing an acquiror to pay additional consideration to a target company's stockholders on the occurrence of specified payment triggers, has long been a creative structuring technique for public M&A dealmakers.

How do you value contingent consideration? ›

For event-related contingent consideration where systematic / market risk is zero, valuing contingent consideration can be as simple as estimating the cash flows that result from the event, the probability of the event occurring, and an estimate of the counterparty credit risk.

How do you calculate the value of rights? ›

The theoretical value during the exercise of rights period—when rights trade independently of the stock—differs from the value during the cum rights period. The calculation for the value during the exercise of rights period is: (Stock price - Right subscription price) / Number of rights needed to buy a share.

How to do contingent valuation? ›

Contingent Valuation is a method of estimating the value that a person places on a good. The approach asks people to directly report their willingness to pay (WTP) to obtain a specified good, or willingness to accept (WTA) to give up a good, rather than inferring them from observed behaviours in regular market places.

What is the fair value of contingent? ›

In the case of contingent consideration, fair value represents the amount the reporting entity would have to pay a hypothetical counter-party to transfer responsibility for paying the contingent liability. This amount is basically the present value of the probability-weighted expected amount of the future payment.
