Pre-Settlement Lawsuit Funding Helps Medical Malpractice Cases Stand the Test of Time



Have you been seriously injured or lost a loved one due to a medical error? Are you struggling financially while the defendant drags their feet – denying, delaying, and defending your claim?  Get the cash you need before you settle with pre-settlement lawsuit funding.

For many people who have suffered from a medical error, filing a medical malpractice lawsuit can produce financial compensation if the plaintiff wins. Although financial compensation cannot replace a life or permanently impaired quality of life, it can provide some help for patients whose health problems were heightened due to the mistake. It also can offer some sense of justice and closure to bereaved loved ones.

After a woman was told a biopsy was normal, she suffered bleeding and pain for almost two years before being properly diagnosed with endometrial cancer.  By that point, the cancer had metastasized to a lymph node, forcing her to undergo chemotherapy and radiation treatment.  Soon after, the cancer spread and he ultimately died at the age of 42. The family filed a medical malpractice lawsuit alleged that early detection of the cancer would have save this woman’s life.  In October 2014, a jury awarded the family $2.2 million.

This case is particularly tragic because of the length of time it took this woman to be diagnosed and treated. Unfortunately, this is not uncommon.  When patients and their families are harmed by a medical error or negligence, a medical malpractice attorney can help them fight for their rights to a fair settlement or just verdict. 
 
While a fair settlement is preferred over the uncertainty of a jury verdict, insurance companies often make low settlement offers in hopes that the plaintiffs will be struggling financially and accept less than deserved. Lawsuit Financial can help them stay financial stable with pre-settlement lawsuit funding.  With a lawsuit cash advance against a pending claim, plaintiffs can pay their bills while their attorney works to ensure they receive every penny of damages that they are eligible to receive.  There are no upfront fees to have a consultation or case evaluation, and if approved for funding there are no payment until the case settles.  Funding is provided within 24 – 48 hours of approval and because it is on a non-recourse basis, if the case is lost the cash advance repayment is waived.  Call Lawsuit Financial to learn more or click here to complete a funding application.
