Crush injuries are among the most painful and life-altering accidents a human being can face.  Each year, an estimated 125,000 Americans are hospitalized for crush-related trauma, often from workplace accidents, vehicle collisions, or industrial equipment failures. . Recovery can take months—or even years, and medical bills pile up fast.

If you’re waiting for your case to settle and struggling to stay afloat, pre-settlement funding for crush injury lawsuits can help. At Baker Street Funding, we provide non-recourse cash advances that let you cover immediate expenses while your attorney fights for the full value of your case.

Understanding Crush Injury Lawsuits

A crush injury happens when a heavy object compresses the body, damaging muscles, bones, nerves, and tissue. The results can be catastrophicamputations, compartment syndrome, organ damage, or permanent disability.

Legally, crush injuries are often the result of someone else’s negligence. These cases usually fall under personal injury law, and common causes include:

Victims often face months of surgeries, rehabilitation, and lost wages. Many can’t return to work. That’s why crush injury cases tend to involve significant settlements—sometimes reaching into six or seven figures depending on liability, medical evidence, and long-term impairment.

Why Pre-Settlement Funding for Crush Injuries Matter

Crush injury cases can take a long time to resolve. Insurance companies drag their feet, hoping financial stress will push you into accepting a lower offer. Meanwhile, rent, utilities, and medical costs don’t wait.

Pre-settlement funding helps level the playing field. It gives you access to part of your expected settlement now.

You are free to use the funds for anything you need, such as:

How Pre-Settlement Legal Funding Works

Pre-settlement funding isn’t a traditional loan—it’s a non-recourse advance against your future settlement. That means:

  • You don’t owe monthly payments.
  • No repayment is required if you lose your case.
  • We only get repaid once your case settles successfully.

The process is simple and attorney-driven:

  1. Apply Online or by Phone (888) 711-3599 – Tell us about your case.
  2. Attorney Cooperation – We contact your lawyer to review case details and settlement potential.
  3. Case Evaluation – Our team assesses liability, damages, and coverage.
  4. Same Day Funding – Once approved, funds can be in your account in hours.

No credit checks. No employment verification. Just a quick, transparent process that helps you get back on your feet.

How We Evaluate Your Crush Injury Case

We know that a crush injury can turn your life upside down, and the legal process can feel overwhelming. That’s why we work closely with your attorney to thoroughly evaluate your case.

Once we receive the necessary documents from your legal team, our underwriters typically completes the review process within 24 to 48 hours. During this time, we determine an appropriate lawsuit funding amount, which can be up to 10% of your projected settlement.

Here’s what we focus on:

  • Medical Impact: We review records to understand the full extent of your injury, including muscle damage, nerve involvement, compartment syndrome, amputation risks, and any surgical interventions you’ve undergone such as emergency fasciotomy.
  • Liability Evidence: To establish responsibility, we analyze accident photos, workplace logs, OSHA findings, or evidence of equipment failures.
  • Long-Term Effects: We consider how your injury affects your mobility, ability to work, and overall quality of life. This includes evaluating future care needs and potential complications.
  • Policy Limits Analysis: We verify the defendant’s insurance policy to ensure it can cover the full value of your potential settlement or court award.
  • Review of Financial Encumbrances: We also examine any existing liens (such as from medical providers or health insurers) or previous settlement offers.

Our goal is to build a complete picture of your case, so we can provide the financial support you need while your legal team fights for the compensation you deserve.
