Workplace injuries can be devastating. When employees are hurt on the job, they often rely on workers’ compensation benefits to cover medical bills and lost wages. But when claims are delayed, denied, or tied up in litigation, injured workers may find themselves without income while still facing mounting expenses.
Pre-settlement funding offers a solution. By providing a cash advance against your pending claim, it ensures financial stability while your case moves through the system. This article explains how pre-settlement funding works with workers’ compensation cases and how Instabridge supports injured workers.
The Financial Strain of Workplace Injuries
A serious workplace injury can result in:
Costly emergency medical care and rehabilitation
Extended time away from work
Permanent disability or reduced earning potential
Ongoing household and family expenses
Even when workers’ compensation benefits are available, disputes or delays can create long financial gaps that leave families vulnerable.
Why Workers’ Compensation Cases Take Time
While workers’ compensation is meant to provide quick relief, claims often face challenges such as:
Employer disputes over whether the injury was work-related
Insurance company delays in processing claims or payments
Appeals and hearings if benefits are denied
Complex cases involving permanent disability or long-term care
These obstacles can drag cases out for months—or even years.
How Pre-Settlement Funding Helps Injured Workers
Pre-settlement funding provides a non-recourse advance based on the expected value of your workers’ compensation claim. That means:
You get money upfront to cover urgent expenses
You only repay if your case is successful
If your claim is denied, you owe nothing
Funding can be used to:
Pay rent, mortgage, or utilities
Cover medical expenses not immediately paid by workers’ comp
Support your family during recovery
Avoid reliance on high-interest credit cards or payday loans
Key Considerations for Workers’ Comp Plaintiffs
Attorney Representation Is Essential: Pre-settlement funding companies require your attorney’s participation to process your case.
Borrow Responsibly: Only take the amount you need to preserve as much of your settlement as possible.
Understand Your Benefits: Your attorney can help determine whether your workers’ comp claim is eligible for funding.
