A jury awarded a New Jersey man $3 million for
injuries he received in an auto accident in 2011. The accident occurred when a
woman ran a stop sign and broadsided his Honda Civic, sending it into a fence.
The careless driver told police her view was blocked by a school bus. The man
suffered three herniated discs in his lower back and damage to his neck. A
doctor testified during the trial that despite epidural injections, the man will
suffer back pain for the rest of his life. The injuries have made it impossible
for this father of four to return to work as a long-haul truck driver. The work
he has been able to endure has significantly reduced his earnings potential. "I'm
happy for [the family] that they will now have a more secure future," said
his attorney.
Why did the case have to be tried before it was
settled? Why did it take four years? There is a strong chance that it was
because the insurance company used "delay, deny, confuse and refuse"
tactics in an attempt to avoid paying this victim the compensation he deserved.
Such tactics is what led to the formation of Lawsuit Financial over 15 years
ago.
Lawsuit Financial supports plaintiffs who have
been given the run-around in a legal system where delay, deny, confuse and
refuse" is a regular occurrence and the defense firms and large
corporations who employ this strategy are rarely punished for it. In this case,
for instance, the young man obviously had significant medical expenses and lost
income. Even now, he is unable to return to the same income level he once
sustained. Although justice has finally been served, he may have endure
significant financial hardship over the last four years that could have been
helped with a lawsuit cash advance.
The goal of lawsuit funding is to help victims
through the litigation process, without having pressing bills and expenses
effect the value of their case. Someone desperate for money will, almost
always, settle his/her case for less than appropriate value. The only
collateral when applying for lawsuit funding is the pending claim. If the
lawsuit is successful (and in this case, it was) we are repaid our case
invested principal and risk adjusted profit out of case proceeds. If the case
fails, we lose our money. If the case resolves at significantly less than
predicted case value, we provide an appropriate compromise. Strategic lawsuit
funding will often prevent this from happening and will, in this scenario, pay
for itself with increased case proceeds.
