In this step-by-step guide, we’ll walk you through the pre-settlement funding application process so you know what to expect and how to prepare.
Step 1: Determine If You’re Eligible
Before applying, confirm that you meet basic qualifications:
You have an active personal injury or civil case
You are represented by an attorney
Your case has a likelihood of settlement or success
Tip: Pre-settlement funding is available for a wide range of cases, including car accidents, slip and falls, medical malpractice, workplace injuries, and more.
Step 2: Submit Your Application
You can typically apply online or over the phone. The application process is fast and straightforward. You’ll be asked to provide:
Basic contact information
Type of case and date of incident
Your attorney’s contact details
Good to Know: There are no credit checks, income requirements, or upfront costs to apply.
Step 3: Case Evaluation
After receiving your application, the funding company will contact your attorney to review case details. This evaluation helps them understand the strength and value of your case.
The Review May Include:
Case type and liability
Estimated settlement value
Medical records or accident reports
Tip: Let your attorney know you’ve applied, so they can respond promptly to any requests.
Step 4: Approval and Funding Offer
If your case qualifies, the provider will send a funding offer that outlines:
The advance amount
The interest rate (simple or compound)
Any applicable fees
The repayment terms
Important: Always review the terms carefully—and have your attorney review the agreement before signing.
Step 5: Receive Your Funds
Once you sign the funding agreement, the provider will disburse the funds—often within 24 to 48 hours. Funds are typically sent via:
Direct deposit
Wire transfer
Check (if preferred)
Use the Advance For:
Rent or mortgage payments
Medical bills
Groceries and daily expenses
Childcare or transportation
Step 6: No Repayment Unless You Win
Pre-settlement funding is non-recourse, which means:
You don’t owe anything if you lose your case
There are no monthly payments
Repayment is made directly from your settlement proceeds
Your attorney will handle the repayment process when your case resolves.
