Get a Free, No-Obligation Lawsuit Funding Consultation For You Slip And Fall Injury




According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), over one million Americans suffer a slip, trip, and fall injury and over 17, 000 people die in the U.S. annually because of these injuries. A slip and fall accident refers to situations when someone slips, trips or falls as a result of a dangerous or hazardous condition on someone else's property. It can happen anywhere – the grocery store, mall, restaurant, or someone’s home; inside or outside. Wherever or however the slip and fall occurred, you may be legally entitled to compensation for the damages and costs associated with your injuries.

An experienced attorney can help slip and fall injury victims obtain financial compensation from the negligent parties. The attorney will work with accident reconstruction experts who can prove that your injuries were caused by the inadequate conditions on another party’s premise. 

The wheels of justice turn slowly, and it can often take more than a year for a slip and fall accident victim to receive money from a settlement or judgment. While such cases may not sound as serious as other types of personal injury accidents, the pain and suffering, medical expenses, recovery time, and loss of income if unable to return to work, can take a huge emotional and financial toll on the victim. Lawsuit Financial can provide a lawsuit cash advance to pay the bills until a settlement is reached.

A lawsuit cash advance is financing against the future proceeds of the case. It can ease the financial burden and allow a slip and fall victim to stay the course and receive all of the compensation deserved. There are no up-front fees, no credit checks and no monthly payments. If you lose your case, you owe NOTHING; we take all the risks!

If you have been injured through a slip and fall accident at another's home or business, and have an attorney, we may be able to provide lawsuit funding assistance. Contact us online or call 1-877-377-SUIT (7848) for a FREE no obligation evaluation of your case. You may be able to get the money you need in as little as 48 hours!

Pre-Settlement Lawsuit Funding Steps In When Paying The Bills Becomes A Challenge



Although many auto accident injuries are minor and settle quickly, a large number involve serious injuries. Even if liability appears clear and injuries obvious, many cases proceed to litigation and trial. In these circumstances, the plaintiff’s attorney must fully investigate the case - interview witnesses, gather documents, and hire accident experts. Many injury victims cannot financially withstand a lengthy legal process, especially if out of work; mounting debt may force plaintiffs to accept an early settlement.  A valuable option is pre-settlement lawsuit funding.

As the driver of a Toyota Camry entered a Louisville intersection, the vehicle was hit broadside by a Chevy pick-up truck that ran a red light. The impact pushed the Camry into a parked car, where it came to rest. The driver of the Camry suffered a herniated disc and broken leg; the driver of the pick-up and one passenger were not injured. The crash remains under investigation although police do not believe alcohol or speeding played a role.
 
The driver of the Camry may want to consult a personal injury attorney to understand her rights to compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Once a lawyer is retained and the case filed, she may wait months, if not longer, for case resolution. During the wait, she will most likely incur significant medical expenses for surgery, therapy, and treatment. If she is unable to return to work, her financial situation could quickly become as devastating as her injuries. When paying the bills becomes a financial challenge, this woman may inquire about obtaining pre-settlement funding.

By applying for and receiving lawsuit funding, the injured victim is able to get back on her feet, financially, even though the case has not resolved and even if she is unable to return to work or has poor credit.  Unlike a bank loan, a lawsuit cash advance is based on the strength of the lawsuit, not employment or credit history. Once the legal finance company receives an application and case documentation, if approved, the plaintiff can have cash in hand within 24-48 hours. Pre-settlement lawsuit funding is provided at no-risk to the plaintiff; there are no hidden fees or monthly payments; repayment is only required when the case settles. If the plaintiff happens to lose, the cash advance is completely waived.

If you or someone you love has been injured in an auto accident due to the negligence of another, you can pursue litigation and request compensation for your injuries. You may also pursue a lawsuit cash advance. To apply, simply complete our online funding application or call us at 1-877-377-7848.

Deadly Balcony Collapse in Berkeley, CA Leads To Numerous Lawsuits



Parents of six college students killed and seven injured in the Berkeley, California balcony collapse last June have begun filing lawsuits alleging negligence by the building manager, Greystar, and the construction firm, Segue Construction. The victims, most of whom were working in the San Francisco Bay area on temporary visas for the summer, were on the small balcony when it plunged some 40 to the street below. Just hours after the balcony collapsed experts said water damage was clearly the cause. The support beams could be seen flaking away in a worker's hand, because of dry rot.

According to the lawsuits, the apartment balcony was showing danger signs of collapsing as far back as 2008, and despite complaints by previous tenants the property manager did nothing. The complaints claim that the defect, also known as wood rot, was caused because Segue chose to use cheaper materials to construct the balcony in 2005, making it more susceptible to water damage. Between Oct. 2008 and summer of 2010, the lawsuits allege, "Tenants observed large mushrooms growing from multiple locations on the surface of the apartment's balcony, an unambiguous red flag warning that the wooden joists were rotting and that the balcony was at great risk for collapse." the lawsuits also claim that a year before the June 16 collapse, the balcony “demonstrated an increased tilt away from the building” when people stood on it. That condition was reported to or seen by the building’s owners and managers, who again failed to take corrective action, the suits say. This is not the first time Segue Corporation has faced lawsuits over water damaged balconies that prematurely rotted and fell off buildings. The company paid more than $6 million to settle two previous lawsuits, according to court records. Investigators have conducted what they call "destructive testing" of the balcony that failed and are still analyzing evidence. The lawsuits are seeking unspecified damages.

While these lawsuits are underway, many of the victims and their families may need cash to pay the bills. This may be possible by securing lawsuit funding against their pending claim. When someone is seeking a settlement advance for a wrongful death case, they oftentimes use the funding to help pay for associated expenses, such as medical expenses or funeral and burial expenses. Funding can also be used as leverage, allowing their attorney extra time to negotiate a fair settlement.
