What is pre-settlement funding?

Pre-settlement funding, also known as a lawsuit loan or legal funding, is a cash advance against your pending personal injury settlement. It provides immediate financial relief to help you manage expenses while you await a fair resolution. Unlike a traditional loan, this funding is non-recourse, which means you only repay it if you win your case. If you don’t, you owe nothing.

Get fast lawsuit funding in Ohio.

When you are waiting on a personal injury claim in Ohio, financial pressure can build fast. Baker Street Funding helps Ohio plaintiffs access pre-settlement funding with clear terms, fast case review, and one-on-one support throughout the process.

  • Fast funding when your case qualifies. Once your attorney sends the required case information and the agreement is signed, funds may be sent in as little as a few hours. That can help when you are trying to keep up with rent, utilities, groceries, or other essential bills while your case moves forward.

  • Support built around your case. You are not left guessing through the process. You work with a dedicated funding specialist who communicates with you and your attorney, explains the terms clearly, and helps move the file forward as smoothly as possible.

  • Funding based on case value, not your credit score. Legal funding is tied to the strength and expected value of your case, not your job history or credit. Qualified Ohio plaintiffs may receive funding up to 10% of your estimated lawsuit’s value, before it settles.

  • Options that fit your situation. Some plaintiffs need one lump sum. Others may need additional funding later as the case continues. Depending on the case, Baker Street Funding may offer flexible structures that make more sense for your financial situation.

  • Non-recourse funding with no monthly payments. This is not a traditional loan. Pre-settlement funding is non-recourse, which means you only pay it back if you win or settle your case. Repayment comes from the settlement proceeds, not from monthly out-of-pocket payments while the case is pending.

Ohio personal injury laws, statistics and legal funding.

Ohio is located in the midwest and is a manufacturing leader, ranking #3 as a manufacturing employment provider in the United States. It is known for its manufacturing jobs in Cleveland, Cincinnati, Akron, Dayton, Strongsville, and Mansfield. Ohio is also known for its worldwide tourism and for being a red state in recent U.S. elections.

If you live in Ohio, you may know landmarks such as Baum-Taft House, Beginning Point of the U.S. Public Land, the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cedar Point, Serpent Mound Historic Site, as previous U.S. Presidents have lived in Ohio, the Mother of Presidents. 

Despite the success in agriculture and the gorgeous landmarks and tourism that Ohio brings, many personal injury victims still struggle financially every day in the Buckeye State. When you live unemployed while injured or dealing with wrongful imprisonment, even a small expense such as buying groceries can set you back and put you under high stress with risks of becoming hungry and homeless. Unfortunately, this is the case currently for many plaintiffs in Ohio.

If approximately 14% of Ohio residents live in poverty and 13% live not knowing if they’ll eat the next day, imagine the financial crisis of plaintiffs involved in personal injuries? Yearly over 110,000 people get injured in the state, leaving thousands without work. To give you a rough number, these are the stats:

  • Around 18% percent of those injured people have back injuries.
  • More or less, 19% percent of those injuries were caused by slips and falls.
  • 12% involve a motor vehicle accident.
  • Yearly, there are about 67,000 car accidents in Ohio.
  • Roughly 12 people get injured every day.
  • Drivers under the influence of alcohol cause drivers 4% of all motor vehicle-related accidents.
  • Drunk drivers make up for 10% of all deaths.
  • Surprisingly, 45% of car accidents happen during the day.

The statute of limitations in the state of Ohio varies depending on the type of case you have. Ultimately, the statute of limitation is a time limit for filing a lawsuit. 

This means that if you do not file your case that time frame, you may not be eligible to recover compensation for your damages. 

  • Bodily: 2 yrs. §2305.11(a); 2305.10; 2305.111
  • Libel/Slander: 1 yr. §2305.11(a)
  • Personal property: 2 yrs. §2305.10
  • Fraud: 4 yrs. §2305.09(c)

According to the Ohio government Department of Insurance, the state works with Comparative Negligence:

” You can recover your damages, minus the percent caused by your own negligence if it’s judged to be 50 percent or less. If you’re more than 50 percent negligent, you may not recover any losses from the other driver. Going back to the example of your being only 20 percent negligent, you would recover 80 percent of your damage under comparative negligence. The other driver would receive no compensation because that person’s negligence exceeded 50 percent. “

The minimum auto insurance policy coverage limits in Ohio are:

  • $25,000 for the injury or death of one person in an accident of your fault.
  • $50,000 for all injuries or deaths resulting from an accident of your fault, 
  • $25,000 for any property damage from an accident of your fault.

For victims involved in financial setbacks as a result of their lawsuits, legal funding may be a great option for solving some financial issues. Lawsuit funding is a popular choice for victims who need to borrow cash from their pending settlements to cover major financial needs.
