Lawsuit Financial is the Answer for Legal Financing Needs

While there are thousands of serious injuries from defective products every year, product manufacturers will only offer safety improvements after they are faced with a significant volume of product liability lawsuits.  A product liability lawsuit can be filed on the basis of a design defect, manufacturing defect, or failure to warn.  When an individual files a lawsuit for a products liability case they are typically holding the manufacture, wholesaler or retailer responsible for the injury.  For those people who are in the need of immediate cash while waiting for compensation, Lawsuit Financial, a leading provider of non-recourse lawsuit funding, can help.  We provide plaintiffs with short-term financing by advancing money against the future proceeds of lawsuits. This minimizes financial pressures on plaintiffs until they receive fair compensation.

It was a rush hour traffic accident, one of almost a thousand traffic deaths on our roadways every year. A moment of inattention. A tragedy that could so easily happen to any family on any given day.  The SUV driven by a 23-year-old pregnant woman was rear-ended by a 60-year-old driver of a 2002 Cadillac, forcing her 2003 Jeep Liberty into a Nissan Cube.  The Jeep overturned and caught fire.  An autopsy determined the cause of death was burns and smoke inhalation.  It is unclear if the fire began with the fuel tank or how fast the other vehicle was traveling when it struck the Liberty.  Although an investigation is ongoing and may take 4 to 6 weeks, police stated that the man was unable to stop as traffic slowed in the right due to inattentiveness.  They are working on obtaining cell phone records to see if he may have texting or talking on the phone at the time of the accident.

The Jeep Liberty was part of Chrysler’s recall campaign last year of Jeep Liberty’s and Grand Cherokees at risk of catching fire during a rear-end collision.  According to a search of the vehicle's VIN number through NHTSA, the Jeep had not been fitted with a trailer hitch as a result of the recall to better protect the gas tank during a rear-end accident. It is not clear whether she had responded to letters about the prescribed repair or whether it would have saved her.

The deceased woman’s family is pursuing a product liability lawsuit against the automaker.  It is unknown whether they will file a claim against the Cadillac driver.  If they are seeking a lawsuit cash advance to help cover expenses until the case settles, completing an online application is the place to start.  Lawsuit Financial can help secure wrongful death lawsuit funding as a result of a defective product and driver negligence. We offer non-recourse funding which means repayment of the cash advance is only made once the case settles, but if the case is lose, the repayment is waived.  We required no application fee, monthly payments, or credit checks.  Once we receive a request for funding, we contact the plaintiffs’ attorney for documentation to determine case strength.  If the case is approved for funding, the plaintiff can have cash in hand within 24 – 48 hours. It is that simple!

Litigation Funding "Buys" Time in Auto Manufacturer Defective Product Lawsuit

Auto accidents can be caused by many factors - speeding, distracted driving, inclement weather, but they can also be caused by auto manufacturers that drivers trust in the first place.  Although vehicles are much safer today, design and manufacturing errors still occur. Sometimes, seatbelts and airbags have failed to protect as intended and gas tanks have unexpectedly exploded following a relatively minor accident.  Unfortunately, many recalls are not put into effect until a defect impacts the lives of motorists who have suffered serious or fatal injuries due to accidents.

If you believe that a  manufacturer defect  is to blame, contacting an experienced attorney is the best way to file a product liability claim against the manufacturer and seek justice. The process of collecting evidence, seeking medical treatment, and trying to put one's life back to normal will begin. During this time, a plaintiff may exhaust all financial resources because most defective product lawsuits take months, even years to settle.  While the plaintiff's attorney will fight for the largest amount of compensation as quickly as possible, a plaintiff's everyday expenses do not stop.  That's where litigation funding comes in handy. For many families, litigation funding is not just a good option; it is the only option.  With litigation funding, you can keep up with your bills and other expenses and focus on getting your life back in order, while your attorney focuses on receiving maximum compensation in your case. 

 

After receipt of a funding application and case documentation, our underwriters will determine if the case has merit and how much to advance the applicant.  Funds can be received by overnight mail or wire transfer within 24 - 48 hours of approval.  Litigation funding is completely contingent upon the outcome of the case; the plaintiff only pays back the cash advance if he/she successfully settles.  It is really that simple.

If you don't have the financial ability to wait out the litigation process for a fair settlement, don't settle for less due to financial distress.  Simply complete our easy, online application or call us toll-free at 1-877-377-7848.

Victims Have the Power to Seek Justice with Pre-Settlement Lawsuit Funding

A Kansas woman was apparently electrocuted after a single-vehicle auto accident.  When the 26-year-old woman lost control of her vehicle, the car struck a utility pole.  Witnesses said when the woman got out of the vehicle, a power line came down; they saw arching and heard explosions.  She was unresponsive at the scene and pronounced dead at a local hospital.  Her two young children in the backseat were unharmed.  An investigation is ongoing to determine what may have caused the woman to lose control and the vehicle to leave the road.

Was the driver distracted? Was there a mechanical failure or defect? While all the details of this fatal auto accident won’t be known until the investigation is complete, witnesses said that the despite this being the first fatality in the area, it is not the first time the pole has been struck by drivers. They believe the intersection is dangerous because of the way the road splits; if a driver misjudges the curve, they could very well hit the pole.  Residents are pushing to move the pole back a few feet.

Safety officials say people should always assume the lines are hot and dangerous so it is best to stay in the vehicle and wait for help.  Getting out might allow the electricity to ground from the car through you. If you see someone in a vehicle with downed power lines on it, do not touch the car or try to rescue the person inside as you could be electrocuted.  If you must get out of the vehicle, jump or hop away to avoid touching the vehicle and the ground at the same time, and keep feet together.  Never attempt to move the lines or touch anything that is touching the line.

Although the driver may have been driving carelessly, failure to avoid foreseeable events from turning tragic is a form of negligence.  When a roadway is poorly designed or road signs, poles, and barriers poorly placed, it can cause or contribute to an auto accident and require an extensive investigation of the roadway and its history. This is especially critical when the roadway has been the site of previous accidents.

No matter how this investigation concludes, the family should seek legal advice from an experienced attorney as soon as possible. They may be able to receive compensation for the wrongful death of their loved one and claim damages for pain and suffering, lost wages, medical bills, and other damages. A wrongful death attorney will help determine if a government entity was responsible for failing to fulfill its obligations of making sure the road is somewhat forgiving of driver error, if the automobile manufacturer was responsible for a defective part that caused the woman to lose control, and/or if the accident was due to drive negligence. Nonetheless, it will be a long legal process and difficult to prove, but with the help of an experienced auto accident attorney, the victims’ family can fight for justice and compensation for their loss.  During this time, the family may be unable to pay funeral and burial expenses, and the costly needs of the deceased two small children.  A financially desperate plaintiff is not in a favorable position regarding settlement negotiations; this person will often settle for too little, too soon. One option to surviving financially while waiting for a settlement is lawsuit funding.

There are no costs or fees associated with a funding application. If approved, funds would arrive within 24 – 48 hours by check or wire.  There are no monthly payments, credit checks, or employment verification, and repayment is contingent upon the outcome of the case.  If the plaintiff loses, the lawsuit cash advance is waived in its entirety.

When Lawsuit Financial is able to provide the freedom to wait for the highest possible settlement there is not need to accept less than full case value. Applying for lawsuit funding can be done online or by calling one of our funding specialists who will happily explain the funding process and review the details of your case to determine your eligibility.
