AltStreet Analysis
·Generated from EDGAR primary sources
LexShares Marketplace Fund I LLC is a litigation finance fund vehicle filed by executives Jay Greenberg and Max Volsky, having raised $9.1M from 93 investors with a $500 minimum investment. This entity is part of the LexShares platform, which operates multiple litigation finance fund vehicles with combined disclosed capital exceeding $83M across four related entities. The filing does not specify the exemption rule used.
This litigation finance fund falls into the accessible investment tier with its $500 minimum, significantly lower than typical institutional-only structures in this asset class. The 93-investor count and relatively small average check size (~$98K) suggest a retail-accessible or semi-retail distribution model common to marketplace-style litigation finance platforms.

Questions About LexShares Marketplace Fund I LLC
Each answer is built from the values on the SEC filing and the AltStreet ledger, not from the issuer's marketing.
What is LexShares Marketplace Fund I LLC?
LexShares Marketplace Fund I LLC is a Delaware limited liability company organized in 2017 that filed a Form D with the SEC on January 25, 2018 as a private equity fund. The filing claims Rule 506(c), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(1) for an offering of equity and pooled investment fund interests. AltStreet links the issuer to LexShares.
Is LexShares Marketplace Fund I LLC legit?
AltStreet does not rate legitimacy; it reports the public record. LexShares Marketplace Fund I LLC filed a Form D with the SEC on January 25, 2018 claiming Rule 506(c), Section 3(c), Section 3(c)(1). A Form D is a notice of an exempt offering, not a review or approval of it. The newest notice reports $9,096,000 sold to 93 investors. AltStreet's enforcement record (SEC, FINRA and state actions) shows no action naming the issuer as of today. The issuer is linked to LexShares, which AltStreet has reviewed. Before investing, confirm the filing on EDGAR, check the seller's registration on FINRA BrokerCheck, and read the offering documents, which a Form D does not include.
Is LexShares Marketplace Fund I LLC registered with or approved by the SEC?
No. A Form D is a notice that an issuer is selling securities under an exemption from registration, and the SEC does not review, approve, or pass on the merits of the offering.
