Guide
Few things create more stress during a lawsuit than the fear of losing your home. When an injury prevents you from working and income suddenly drops, rent or mortgage payments can quickly fall behind. Late notices turn into eviction warnings or foreclosure threats—often long before your case is anywhere near settlement.
Pre-settlement funding provides critical financial support during this vulnerable period, helping plaintiffs stay housed and stable while their attorney works to secure fair compensation.
Why Housing Is at Risk During Personal Injury Lawsuits
Legal cases take time—sometimes far longer than anyone expects. During that time, plaintiffs often experience:
Lost wages or reduced income
Delayed insurance payments
Rising medical expenses
Credit card debt replacing income
Missed rent or mortgage payments
Even plaintiffs with strong cases can face eviction or foreclosure simply because compensation hasn’t arrived yet.
The Consequences of Losing Your Home Mid-Case
Housing instability creates serious problems beyond financial stress, including:
Difficulty continuing medical treatment
Increased emotional distress and anxiety
Disruption for children and family members
Negative impact on recovery and mental health
Reduced ability to participate fully in your legal case
In some cases, housing insecurity can even pressure plaintiffs into accepting unfair, low settlement offers just to survive.
How Pre-Settlement Funding Protects Your Housing
Pre-settlement funding is a non-recourse cash advance based on your anticipated settlement. That means:
You receive funds quickly—often within 24–48 hours
You only repay if your case wins or settles
There are no monthly payments
If your case is unsuccessful, you owe nothing
This structure allows plaintiffs to prioritize essential housing expenses without risking long-term debt.
Using Funding to Cover Housing Costs
Many plaintiffs use pre-settlement funding to cover:
Monthly rent payments
Mortgage payments
Past-due balances or late fees
Utilities required to keep housing active
Homeowner association (HOA) fees
Temporary housing if relocation is required during recovery
By keeping housing secure, plaintiffs create a stable environment that supports healing and legal success.
Why Stable Housing Strengthens Your Case
When housing is secure, plaintiffs are better positioned to:
Follow medical treatment plans consistently
Attend doctor appointments and therapy
Communicate regularly with their attorney
Avoid stress-related health setbacks
Resist pressure from insurance companies to settle early
Financial stability allows your attorney the time needed to pursue the full value of your case—without rushing.
