Living with paralysis or quadriplegia changes everything in an instant. Whether caused by a car accident, a workplace injury, or medical negligence, these injuries bring overwhelming challenges. Beyond the physical pain and loss of independence, the financial pressure can feel crushing. Medical bills keep climbing, work becomes impossible, and waiting for a lawsuit settlement feels like waiting forever.

At Baker Street Funding, we know how overwhelming this time can be. That’s why we offer pre-settlement funding for paralysis and quadriplegia lawsuits—cash advances that give you the financial relief you need while your case progresses.

Understanding Paralysis and Quadriplegia Injury Lawsuits

Paralysis is the loss of muscle function in part of the body. Quadriplegia, also called tetraplegia, is paralysis affecting all four limbs and often the torso. These conditions are life-altering and typically the result of severe spinal cord damage.

From a legal standpoint, many of these injuries fall under personal injury lawsuits when another party’s negligence is involved. Common causes include:

Because the damages are catastrophic, settlements in these cases often reflect the high cost of lifelong care. For example, data from the National Spinal Cord Injury Statistical Center shows that lifetime medical expenses for a person with quadriplegia can exceed $5 million.

Verdicts and settlements in catastrophic paralysis cases regularly reach into the millions, depending on liability and future care needs.

The Financial Strain of Living with Paralysis or Quadriplegia

Here’s the reality: lawsuits often take a long time. Insurance companies may deliberately delay proceedings when they know you’re under pressure. But while they stall, your everyday expenses don’t wait. Costs such as making your home accessible, requiring constant care, purchasing special medical equipment, and even just your basic living expenses can quickly become overwhelming.

You may need additional surgeries just to restore your independence, but the inability to work can strain your financial situation long before a settlement is in sight.

This situation is precisely why lawsuit funding exists. It provides fast, risk-free financial support to help you cover your immediate needs while your personal injury lawsuit is pending.

What is Pre-Settlement Funding For Paralysis and Quadriplegia Injury Lawsuits?

Pre-settlement funding, sometimes called a “personal injury lawsuit loan” or “legal funding” is not a traditional loan at all. It’s a non-recourse cash advance based on the value of your expected settlement. That means:

  • You don’t make monthly payments.
  • You only repay if you win or settle your case.
  • If you lose, you owe nothing back.

How the Funding Process Works

Applying is easy, and we work hand-in-hand with your attorney:

  1. Submit Your Application – You or your lawyer can apply online or over the phone: (888) 711-3599.
  2. Attorney Cooperation – We’ll contact your lawyer for case documents to understand liability, damages, and expected settlement value.
  3. Case Review – Our underwriters review the strength of your case and your projected recovery.
  4. Approval & Funding – Once approved, you can receive funds in as little as 2 hours.

There are no credit checks, income requirements, or employment verifications. Our focus is solely on your personal injury case.

Qualification for Legal Funding

  1. A valid personal injury claim worth over $50,000, filed in the state.
  2. A cooperative attorney working on contingency.
  3. Strong evidence of the defendant’s fault and insurance limits.
  4.  You are over 18 and live in a state where pre-settlement financing is available.

Remember: all funding advances are provided on a non-recourse basis, meaning that if your case is unsuccessful and does not result in a settlement, you will not be required to repay the advance.

Funding Evaluation for a Personal Injury Lawsuit Involving Paralysis and Quadriplegia

The amount of money awarded in a paralysis or quadriplegia lawsuit depends on several factors. These include laws about who is at fault, such as comparative fault or contributory negligence. To get financial assistance from Baker Street Funding, your lawyer must show strong evidence that the other person’s negligence directly caused your injury.

Here’s what we look for:

  • Accident reports or incident documentation clearly linking the injury to the negligent event that resulted in paralysis or quadriplegia.
  • Detailed medical records showing the extent and permanence of your injury, including the initial acute care costs, hospital reports and records of emergency care, rehabilitation, and specialized mobility aids.
  • Post-op reports such as spinal cord stimulation, selective peripheral neurotomy, phrenic nerve stimulation, amputation, artificial disc replacement, or other reconstructive spinal surgery.
  • Physician statements documenting diagnosis, prognosis, and any permanent impairment.
  • Evidence of liability that demonstrates how the defendant is responsible, supported by expert opinions or witness statements.
  • Proof of insurance coverage to confirm there are funds available for settlement.

Our evaluation process is simple, confidential, and designed with your situation in mind.

FAQs About Paralysis & Quadriplegia Lawsuit Funding

Can I get a lawsuit loan if I’m paralyzed?

Yes. If your paralysis or quadriplegia resulted from an accident caused by someone else’s negligence and you have an active lawsuit, you may qualify for pre-settlement funding. Approval depends on your case strength and expected settlement, not your credit or employment history.

How fast can I receive funding for my paralysis lawsuit?

Once your attorney provides case documents, approvals can take as little as 24–48 hours. Funds are then wired directly to your account so you can cover urgent expenses immediately.

Do I have to repay if I lose my case?

No. Paralysis and quadriplegia lawsuit loans are non-recourse. That means repayment only happens if you win or settle your case. If you lose, you owe nothing back.

How much funding can I get for a quadriplegia lawsuit?

Funding amounts vary depending on the projected value of your settlement and case details. Typically, we release up to 10% of your case value. Because paralysis cases often involve lifelong care and high damages, these advances are typically larger than in standard personal injury cases.

Will applying affect my credit or income?

Not at all. We don’t run credit checks or ask for proof of income. Eligibility is based only on your injury case merits and attorney cooperation.
