Does a Serious Injury Have You Strapped for Cash This Holiday Season?

While many banks offer loans for holiday shopping or that dream vacation, these loans require a monthly payment and may also come with a high interest rate.  Bank loans must always be paid back and within a designated time period; they also require a credit check and proof of employment.

What happens if you have been severely injured and are faced with the loss of income and mounting medical expenses?  How do you pay the bills and make ends meet?  How do you stay afloat this holiday season?  Say “hello” to “lawsuit funding”, sometimes known as a “lawsuit loan”.  Lawsuit funding can help tame those huge holiday bills because credit history and employment does not matter.

A lawsuit cash advance is a non-recourse “lawsuit loan”.  Unlike a bank loan, the plaintiff only repays the cash advance if, and when, he/she wins his/her case. If the plaintiff loses, there is not repayment whatsoever; the litigation funding company assumes all the risk.  Additionally, with a lawsuit cash advance, there are no upfront fees or monthly payments and funds can be available within 24 – 48 hours after receipt of a completed application.

Insurance companies have the financial resources to litigate a case to the very end. They will oftentimes intentionally deny, delay, and defend cases because they know in today’s economy many people are strapped for cash.  Insurance companies and big businesses hope that by applying the 3Ds, the will settle for less than fair compensation because of financial constraints.

Litigation funding can help dramatically change the outcome of a plaintiff’s settlement because it levels the playing field. When a plaintiff is more financially stable, his/her attorney has time to negotiate fair compensation.

The team at Lawsuit Financial is ready to help plaintiffs this holiday season. If you are not in the financial position to wait years before compensation is paid, but are worried how to survive this holiday season, contact LawsuitFinancial for a free, no obligation consultation.  Lawsuit funding could be a viable option and make a difference in your financial staying power. Let us put some cheer back into your holidays and bridge the gap between a low settlement offer and the full and fair value of your case.

Driving Under the Influence Kills Two Resulting in Three Lawsuits

A three-vehicle auto accident in October 2010 that killed two has led to three lawsuits.  A twenty-seven year old man driving a Chevy pick-up truck crossed the center line and sideswiped a Ford pick-up truck before hitting a Honda Civic head-on.  The driver of the Honda and the front seat passenger died at the scene; two backseat passengers suffered serious injuries.  Blood tests showed the driver of the Chevy pick-up had Xanax and alcohol in his system; he pleading guilty and was sentenced to 25 years in prison.

The lawsuits filed against Bollinger Shipyards, the driver of the Ford pick-up, and the family of the drugged driver, are asking for unspecified monetary damages. The facts in the lawsuit are

• Earlier in the day the driver of the Chevy truck was with a friend who was arrested on DWI charges. 
• He was returning from posting bond for his friend when the fatal accident occurred, he was returning from posting bond for that friend.

One lawsuit alleges that both men had been given beer by their unnamed supervisor at Bollinger for working overnight.  The lawsuit said this is “a known and customary practice at Bollinger.”  Another suit states that the negligent driver’s family allowed him to get behind the wheel knowing he was impaired.  The suit against the driver of the Ford pick-up truck alleges that the he “did not take proper evasive action to avoid a collision between his vehicle and the vehicle driven by the DUI driver despite having ample time, opportunity, and warning of the upcoming dangerous situation.”

Unfortunately, the families who lost a loved one and those victims who were seriously injured may never recover full compensation; the driver of the Chevy pick-up truck was driving on a suspended license and had no insurance. The family’s only attempt at collecting from him will be from future earnings.  Is Bollinger responsible for its employees?  They may have provided beer, but did are they responsible if employees drink and then get behind the wheel?  What about the driver of the Ford pick-up? 

There are many unanswered questions in this fatal auto accident.  It may take years to reach a resolution.  In the meantime, the victims may be suffering from financial distress.  This is not uncommon since insurance companies do everything in their power to delay resolving the case and paying settlements, verdicts or judgments.
