What is a settlement cash advance?

A settlement cash advance (known as litigation funding) is essentially an advance on your future settlement that gives you instant access to cash while you wait for your claim to be adjudicated or finalized. For plaintiffs, these advances are designed to help you cover immediate needs such as medical debt, transportation, rent, and other expenses that are almost guaranteed due to a major accident. For attorneys, you can gain much-needed capital, enabling you to cover everyday costs while working with the other party on agreeing to pay out the damages. In general, settlement advance funding may also be a good idea if the defendant offers a much lower payout than the fair value of your claim.

A settlement advance uses your pending compensation payout as collateral, meaning it is non-recourse and is not considered to be a traditional loan or a bank loan. Funding companies only get repaid if you recover monetary compensation empowering you to unlock some of the future value of your case to get you through the wait at no risk.

FAQ.

You can receive money in advance of your settlement payout amount simply by borrowing from it. To get started, apply for legal funding online. If your case gets pre-qualified for evaluation, your attorney will be contacted to provide your case file. Upon receiving your documents, underwriting will quickly assess your case and make a funding decision. If approved, you and your attorney will sign a non-recourse funding agreement, and the funds will be disbursed to you within 2-24 hours.

Your borrowing limit is 10% of the value of your eventual settlement or court-ordered damages award. Depending on how the estimated value of your probable settlement, our cash advance amounts range from $1,500 to $2 million or more.

For example, say your settlement is worth $150,000: you will be allowed to receive an advance of up to 10% of your settlement’s value. Multiply your settlement’s value ($150,000) by the percentage you can take out (10% or .10) and that gives you a maximum of $15,000 that you could realistically get advanced from your potential settlement.

Our team of underwriters will work with your attorney and will evaluate your case based on various factors, including the potential settlement figure. The monetary value we assign to your case will determine how much money you can receive.
