How will a cash advance help me?
Many times, a cash advance will enable you to hold out for a larger settlement, giving the attorney time to get you the largest possible recovery. You will not be forced to take the first, low settlement offer because of financial pressure caused by the accident.
What is the charge?
The charge is 40% of the amount advanced per 6 months or portion thereof. For example if you receive a $5,000 advance you would owe us $5,000 plus an additional $2,000 for every 6 month period, or portion thereof, that passes until we are paid back.
Do I need good credit?
No. Lawyers Funding makes cash advances based on the value of the claim not on a credit rating. There is no application fee, and no job is required.
Who is eligible?
Anyone with a viable injury claim such as: a Vehicle Accident, Wrongful Death Case, Serious Injury Claim, Product Liability Claim, Premises Liability Claim, a Dog Bite, etc is eligible for a cash advance. They must be attorney represented."
