How do lawsuit loans work in Florida?

A Florida lawsuit loan, or pre-settlement funding, is a non-recourse funding solution for Florida plaintiffs that lets them borrow money against their case. This funding option is designed to give you the cash you need now to cover medical expenses, food, child care, mortgage or rent payments, and other essential living costs while awaiting justice to be served.

Unlike other forms of funding, pre-settlement lawsuit loans in Florida use your future settlement as collateral for repayment. If you lose your case, you’re not held responsible for repayment. Plus, there is no negative impact on your credit score since the loan is not reported to credit bureaus.

Across all 67 counties and cities in Florida, Baker Street Funding offers non-recourse loans for lawsuits of all types. Some of these cases include car accidents, slip and fall incidents, medical malpractice cases, and more. Most of the cities we provide settlement funding in Florida are Daytona Beach, Tampa, Miami, Orlando, St. Petersburg, Jacksonville, Fort Lauderdale, Fort Myers, Tallahassee, and Sarasota.

See how a Florida lawsuit loan can help.

If you're a victim of an accident in Florida, you're likely taking on burdens that no one should have to take—physical pain, emotional distress, and a cloud of financial instability. It's as if life has thrown you into a storm you never asked for. In this dire moment, a pre-settlement cash advance provides a specialized financial option that grants you quick access to your settlement funds earlier.

A quicker way to access the funds you urgently need.
Since lawsuit loan companies in Florida don't require pay stubs, bank statements, credit, or tax returns, you can get fast financial assistance in as little as 24 hours.
Lawsuit loans help you cover your expenses.
Your bills won't wait for your settlement, but with Florida lawsuit funding, you won't have to wait either. Obtain up to 10% to 20% of your settlement upfront and use the money for anything you need, such as medical bills, rent, mortgage payments, groceries, transportation, living expenses, and other urgent costs.
Legal funding lets you get medical treatment.
When you need surgery, the last thing you want is to wait weeks or months for your medical provider to approve your health care expenses on a lien. A legal funding company can cover the costs of the procedure you need following an accident lawsuit so that you can begin rehabilitating sooner rather than later.
Lawsuit loans allow you to obtain additional funding.
That's right—you can receive as many lawsuit loans as you need. But remember to only borrow what you need. You can always request additional cash advances later if required.
Funding makes it easier to concentrate on your case.
Pre-settlement lawsuit loans in Florida give you the breathing space to focus on your pending personal injury lawsuit — you can go to mediation, settlement negotiations, or court.

Florida pre-settlement loans have no financial risk.

Obtaining a loan on your lawsuit settlement can provide you with a safe way to get financial help free of financial risk.

No monthly payments, at all.

Take your worries away with no monthly payments, no late fees, no never-ending debt, and absolutely no prepayment penalties.

No credit checks or income proof required.

Legal funding doesn't consider your credit history or income, so it's great for anyone who is struggling financially.

It is not asset-based, so you're protected.

You won't lose your home or car if you lose the legal battle. There is no risk of personal liability.

No win, no fee, no pay, no risk.

Without fear of becoming indebted if your personal injury lawsuit fails, Florida lawsuit loans provide you with a secure, no-risk way to get the funds you need. There is no repayment unless you win your case.

Pre-settlement lawsuit funding

Lawsuit funding might even help level the playing field.

Lawsuits in Florida can bring justice to personal injury victims, but the process of seeking justice can result in injustice in itself. The Unfair Insurance Trade Practices Act requires insurance companies to process claims fairly, but it’s common for these companies to delay settlements, which compel claimants to accept lower compensation.

Financial support through lawsuit loans can provide you with the means to sustain yourself during protracted legal proceedings, allowing your attorney to negotiate a favorable settlement effectively.

 It’s important to note, though, that lawsuit funding doesn’t guarantee a higher payment from the insurance company or defense attorneys. The final settlement is contingent upon the merits of the case and the negotiation skills of the legal counsel.

The interest rates on lawsuit loans are based on the risks and complexities associated with the litigation. Depending on the lender, additional fees or charges may include origination fees, processing fees, and administrative costs. When the case is settled, the loan is repaid by your attorney in one lump sum from the settlement proceeds.

Baker Street Funding offers fast, risk-free pre-settlement loans in Florida with competitive interest rates. Rates vary from 2.95% up to 3.4% monthly. All our loans are available at a non-compounding rate. Non-compounding interest rates remains the same throughout your 6-month or yearly contract. Most of our clients see fixed rates over time. There are no added-hidden fees, and rates as low as 28% annually, ending in the third year. If your case takes longer than three years to settle, you will not be charged additional interest.

Most pre-settlement funding providers often offer compound interest rates. This means that you get charged interest on the principal amount, as well as interest on interest from previous months.

After your settlement is reached, compound interest can accumulate very quickly, causing your interest payments to increase rapidly, putting your lawsuit settlement at risk.

Most pre-settlement funding providers have a set of criteria to qualify personal injury plaintiffs for a loan. Below are six minimum requirements to be automatically eligible for a quick Baker Street Funding non-recourse loan.

You must:

  1. Have a valid employment, civil rights, personal injury lawsuit, a workers’ comp claim, or an accident case in Florida.
  2. Be involved in a “no-fault” Florida accident that caused you considerable injuries.
  3. Have a strong liability claim against a properly insured defendant.
  4. Have an attorney who can verify the legitimacy of the lawsuit.
  5. A cooperative lawyer. Under Florida state law, these types of loans are subject to repayment by your attorney.
  6. If you have a settled case, Baker Street Legal Funding accepts settlements over $50,000. We only need one piece of documentation and a five-minute consultation with your attorney. 

As soon as you have met these minimum eligibility requirements, several other factors will be taken into account in the processing of your funding application.

No. A pre-settlement funding company is not allowed to interfere with a case or pay lawsuit loans to settle claims.

Understanding personal injury lawsuits in Florida and available financial support options.

As new laws and court decisions take effect, state laws are continually being revised in the legal system. At Street Funding, we strive to give our customers up-to-date information. While this information should provide you with a general understanding of the legal process in Florida, we strongly recommend that you contact your attorney to get advice specific to your situation.

 

It’s a simple fact that many personal injury victims cannot afford their day-to-day expenses while waiting for a claim to conclude. Our responsibility is to give our clients a sense of relief. We want you to focus on getting better instead of worrying about where your next meal will come from or how you will pay your bills. For this reason, our financial assistance team has compiled a list of alternative financial support options for you.

Unless there is a specific circumstance, Baker Street Funding’s ethical opinion states that legal funding companies should not refer clients to attorneys for quid-pro-quo reasons. This policy is based on the belief that the best lawsuit loan providers prioritize the best interests of their clients.

Aside from that, Baker Street Legal Funding has numerous relationships with personal injury lawyers in Florida who possess the skills and experience necessary to handle any type of case. As a result of privacy protections for our clients and law firms, we cannot publicly reveal the name of any notable personal injury attorney we would recommend. This helps to ensure the privacy and safety of our clients, as well as protect the law firm from any potential legal issues with insurance companies that could arise from publicly recommending a specific attorney.

  1. Damages. Damages are monies that can be awarded to someone who has been injured by the conduct of another individual. The amount of financial compensation the victim can receive depends on the severity of the injury, who caused it, and how it occurred.
  2. Statute of Limitations in Florida. Statute of Limitations in Florida. The statute of limitations is the legal term for a law that imposes a maximum filing deadline for lawsuits. The statute of limitations in Florida is as follows:
      – Injury to a person: 4 years §95.11(3)(o).
      – Negligence/Malpractice:: 2 Years (after discovery) or years from when the medical negligence occurred. §95.11(4)(a) and (b).
      – Libel/slander: 2 years §95.11(4)(g).
  3. Florida is a modified comparative negligence state. Florida used to operate under a pure comparative negligence rule for the past 50 years since 1973, meaning your damages award would be reduced based on your percentage of fault. For instance, if you were 20% at fault for an accident and the other driver was 80% at fault, your damages award would be reduced by 20%. Even if you were 99% at fault, you could still be entitled to compensation. However, as of March 24, 2023, the law has changed. Florida now operates under a modified comparative negligence standard, according to amendments to section 768.81 of the Florida Statutes. This means the rules around fault and compensation have changed.
    Understanding these changes when considering a lawsuit can help determine if you can or should file one. For instance, if there are multiple defendants responsible for your injury, you can still file a lawsuit against them all, with each liable for their percentage of fault.
  4. Contribution among the tortfeasors. When several people harm another person, even if there has not been a judgment entered against each person, they may still be held liable for the damages. Those who pay more than their fair share may request assistance from the others who are responsible for paying part of the damages.
  5. Joint and Several Liability: According to the Florida Bar Journal, unless you live in a cave, as of April 6, 2006, Florida eliminated the joint and several doctrines that addressed situations where multiple parties were responsible for an incident. Instead, Florida operates on a comparative liability system, which dictates that each defendant is solely accountable for their share of damages based on their level of culpability.
  6. Florida personal injury laws and lawsuit funding regulations. Personal injury laws and lawsuit funding regulations aren’t correlated. Since each has its own rules and regulations, comparative negligence laws in Florida do not dictate legal funding regulations, if any. This means you can get funding for your accident without any interference from Florida laws.

The Florida no-fault law requires that all drivers have Personal Injury Protection (PIP) coverage, regardless of who is at fault in motor vehicle accidents, to cover medical costs and lost wages. PIP coverage covers the policyholder, his household, and passengers. If the injuries are severe or permanent, the injured may be able to sue for additional damages. In Florida, PIP claimants may receive up to $10,000 in medical treatment, 60 percent of lost income, and $5,000 in death benefits.

Florida’s minimum insurance coverage is 10/20/10:

  • $10,000 bodily injury coverage.
  • The max amount paid is $20,000 per accident.
  • $10,000 property damage coverage per accident

It is important to understand that Florida has severe penalties for driving without insurance, like license suspensions and reinstatement fees. You can also get points on your license, and you can even go to jail.

Florida, also known as the Orange State, is home to some of the happiest people in America. The state motto, “In God we trust,” reflects the faith and values of Florida residents. However, not everything is perfect in Florida. According to the Florida Department of Health, falls are a major cause of injury and death among seniors, with over 60,000 hospitalizations.

Moreover, the Sunshine State witnessed over 400,000 car accidents in 2021. This makes Florida one of the states with the highest traffic fatality rates in the country.
