Severe nerve injuries can change everything — from how you move to how you live. Whether caused by a car accident, medical negligence, or workplace trauma, these injuries often lead to chronic pain, mobility loss, or even permanent disability.

If you’re waiting for a lawsuit settlement and struggling to keep up with bills or medical costs, pre-settlement funding for nerve injury cases can help. Baker Street Funding provides non-recourse cash advances that give you the breathing room you need while your attorney fights for the compensation you deserve.

Understanding Nerve Injury Lawsuits

Your nerves control every movement, sensation, and reflex in your body. When they’re damaged, the effects can be life-altering. Legally, these injuries often fall under personal injury or medical malpractice claims, depending on how they occurred.

Common causes of nerve damage lawsuits include:

  • Motor vehicle accidents leading to spinal cord or peripheral nerve trauma.
  • Crush injuries causing permanent nerve compression or amputation-related damage.
  • Surgical errors where nerves are cut, stretched, or trapped during procedures.
  • Slip and fall or workplace accidents involving heavy machinery or unsafe conditions.
  • Medical negligence, such as injection or anesthesia-related nerve injury.

Some of the most severe forms of nerve damage include:

  • Brachial plexus injury – often resulting in arm paralysis or loss of function.
  • Spinal cord nerve injury – causing partial or full paralysis.
  • Peroneal or sciatic nerve injury – leading to mobility issues or chronic pain.
  • Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) – a debilitating condition of continuous pain after trauma or surgery.

According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke and National Institutes of Health, each year, more than 20 million Americans have peripheral nerve injuries, leading to more than 900,000 surgical repair procedures annually.

The Financial Strain After a Nerve Injury

Severe nerve injuries often require surgeries, physical therapy, nerve grafts, and pain management. Many victims can’t return to work for months — or at all. As bills pile up and insurance delays drag on, financial stress can make recovery even harder.

That’s where pre-settlement funding helps. It gives you fast access to a portion of your future settlement so you can pay for essentials now, without waiting for your case to resolve.

How Pre-Settlement Funding Works

Pre-settlement funding isn’t a loan. It’s a non-recourse cash advance based on your pending settlement — meaning repayment only happens if you win your case.

Here’s how simple it is:

  1. Apply Online or by Phone (888) 711-3599 – Share details about your personal injury attorney and case.
  2. Attorney Cooperation – We contact your lawyer for case documentation.
  3. Case Review – Our experts evaluate liability, damages, and recovery potential.
  4. Funding Within 24–48 Hours – Once approved, we wire funds directly to your account.

No credit checks. No monthly payments. No risk if you lose your case.

How Your Lawsuit Advance Can Support Your Recovery

A lawsuit advance can help you manage the real costs that come with a serious nerve injury:

  • Medical treatment: Surgery, nerve grafts, or specialized pain management.
  • Rehabilitation: Physical or occupational therapy sessions for mobility and strength.
  • Assistive devices: Braces, wheelchairs, ergonomic supports, or nerve stimulators.
  • Household and daily expenses: Rent, utilities, groceries, or childcare.
  • Alternative therapies: Acupuncture, massage, or nerve stimulation treatments often not covered by insurance.

Your advance gives you freedom — so financial stress doesn’t control your next move.

Eligibility for Nerve Injury Lawsuit Pre-Settlement Funding

Here’s what we look for when evaluating funding eligibility:

  • Representation by an attorney working on a contingency basis.
  • Attorney cooperation to provide case documents and sign the agreement upon approval.
  • Filed or pending lawsuit showing evidence of negligence and resulting nerve damage.
  • Strong case value, typically over $50,000, supported by medical and legal documentation.
  • Insurance coverage or collectible assets from the defendant.
  • You are 18 or older and live in a fundable state.

All advances are non-recourse, so you never owe repayment if your case doesn’t succeed.

How We Evaluate Your Nerve Injury Case

At Baker Street Funding, we evaluate cases by combining factual evidence, clear liability, and the severity of your injury.

Key Evidence

  • Accident or Incident Reports: Police, OSHA, or workplace documentation showing how the injury occurred.
  • Medical Records: Hospital notes, surgical reports, and EMG or nerve-conduction studies confirming the type and severity of nerve damage.
  • Diagnostic Imaging: MRI or ultrasound reports showing nerve entrapment, compression, or transection.
  • Expert Medical Opinions: Neurologist or orthopedic assessments describing prognosis, long-term impairment, and treatment requirements.
  • Functional Limitations: Physical-therapy evaluations showing loss of movement, sensation, or grip strength.

Damages & Long-Term Impact

  • Severity and permanence: Partial vs. complete nerve disruption or paralysis.
  • Ongoing care needs: Surgery, long-term rehabilitation, or pain-management plans.
  • Economic losses: Time off work, reduced earning capacity, and future medical costs.
  • Quality of life: Daily limitations, psychological distress, and chronic pain (especially in CRPS cases).

Case Viability & Coverage

  • Defendant liability: Clear negligence — motorist, employer, or medical provider.
  • Insurance details: Policy limits and confirmation of active coverage.
  • Attorney feedback: Confirmation that your counsel supports the case value and litigation stage.

Once your attorney provides the documentation, we typically complete reviews within 24–48 hours, ensuring timely funding for those who need it most.

FAQs About Nerve Injury Lawsuit Funding

Can I get pre-settlement funding for a severe nerve injury or CRPS case?

Yes. We provide funding for serious nerve-damage cases — including spinal cord injuries, brachial plexus damage, and Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) — when another party’s negligence caused your condition. Approval depends on your attorney’s documentation showing strong liability, medical proof, and expected settlement value.

Does Baker Street Funding offer surgery funding for nerve repair or graft procedures?

Yes. If your treating surgeon recommends a nerve repair, graft, or decompression surgery, and your attorney supports the case, we can provide direct medical funding to cover those costs. Once the case and medical recommendation are reviewed, payment goes straight to the provider so your procedure isn’t delayed.

What happens if my nerve injury worsens while the case is pending?

If your condition deteriorates or requires additional care, your attorney can update your case file and request a funding reassessment. Because our advances are non-recourse, you never owe more than the agreed amount — even if your symptoms progress or recovery takes longer than expected.

How long does it take to get approved for nerve injury pre-settlement funding?

Once your attorney sends the necessary case documents, most approvals are finalized within 24–48 hours. Funds are wired directly to your account so you can cover treatment, therapy, or daily expenses while your attorney pursues your claim.
