Company History

1992
An Unanticipated Beginning
The Inception

Grounded by a leg injury and unable to trade, Chicago Board Options Exchange market-maker James Tharin found an unexpected opportunity. Tasked with creating a market for BMW M5 Litigation settlement coupons, Tharin established the foundation of what would become Mitena Partners.

1993
Expansion and Diversification
Conception of a Market Leader

Incorporated as Certificate Clearing Corporation (CCC), the firm pioneered markets in 18 class action settlements over two decades, enabling claimants to recover nearly $200 million. From small cases to complex ones, CCC proved its mettle, even venturing into coupon and certificate settlements.


2005
A Shift In Focus
A Pivot Towards Securities Class Action Claim Filing

A notice in the Options Antitrust Litigation marked a turning point. As a non-member during the 12-year class period, Tharin argued he should be eligible to submit trades and participate in the settlement, thus expanding CCC's scope to securities class action claim filing.

 

2020
