champerty
n 1: an unethical agreement between an attorney and client that

Champerty \Cham"per*ty\, n. [F. champart field rent, L.
campipars; champ (L. campus) field part (L. pars) share.]
1. Partnership in power; equal share of authority. [Obs.]
[1913 Webster]

2. (Law) The prosecution or defense of a suit, whether by
furnishing money or personal services, by one who has no
legitimate concern therein, in consideration of an
agreement that he shall receive, in the event of success,
a share of the matter in suit; maintenance with the
addition of an agreement to divide the thing in suit. See
