Lawsuit Funding Helps Wrongful Death Plaintiffs Cope With Unexpected Expenses

Any act of negligence, whether from an auto accident, medical malpractice, inadequate care, or defective product, that results in death is a potential wrongful death claim. Damages can include loss of income, medical expenses, funeral and burial expenses, pain and suffering, and loss of companionship. However, compensation is not automatic; wrongful death lawsuits usually involve a significant amount of money and are hard fought by defense-insurance interests, resulting in a long, drawn out legal battle that can take years to resolve. Some plaintiffs may have access to resources that would keep them stable until a verdict is delivered, but not everyone is that fortunate however. As the bills pile up, many may feel the pressure to settle too soon, for too little; the exact situation the insurance company hopes will happen. Being a financially desperate plaintiff is not a positive influence on settlement negotiations, but what alternative does a plaintiff have?

Lawsuit funding allows victims of negligence to pay the necessary bills while they wait out the lengthy litigation process. Here’s how it works.

Once a plaintiff completes an online application or calls Lawsuit Financial, we request supporting documentation to determine if the case will qualify for funding. Approvals are based on the strength of the case, alone; whether you a plaintiff qualifies has nothing to do with credit standing or job status. We understand the urgency for most plaintiffs which is why we can typically approve an application for funding within 24 – 48 hour. Lawsuit Financial is repaid from the proceeds of the settlement, so if the case is lost, the plaintiff keeps the cash advance, no string attached.

If you are struggling financially while awaiting settlement of your loved one’s wrongful death case, how do you know if lawsuit funding is right for you? Ask yourself these questions:

·         Are you worried about financial issues?

·         Are you facing eviction, foreclosure, or repossession of your vehicle?

·         Are you unable to pay funeral expenses?

·         Are you unable to put food on the table or pay other necessities of life?

·         Are you considering a less than favorable settlement?

If you answered yes to most or all of these questions, you should contact Lawsuit Financial online or via phone at 1-877-377-7848 to see how lawsuit funding can make a real difference in the bottom line of your case. You owe it to yourself to check it out.

Experience and Reputation Matter


The legal finance industry is no different than most other industries. If you are searching for lawsuit funding, experience and reputation should matter.

If you were seriously injured in an auto accident, it is important to contact an experienced attorney who knows how to handle a personal injury claim. The reason is that an attorney’s experience can directly impact your case. If you are working with an attorney that has never handled your specific type of case, it could greatly reduce your chances to obtain the compensation you deserve. The same is true for obtaining lawsuit funding.

Once you have filed an injury claim or lawsuit, if you are interested in receiving a lawsuit cash advance against your case, Lawsuit Financial can help. Lawsuit Financial has been a leader in the litigation funding industry for over 17 years because we have a proven reputation of working tirelessly to provide sensible lawsuit cash advances for plaintiffs struggling financially during a pending lawsuit. Unlike our competition, we don’t do television and radio commercials, billboard advertising, direct mailings, or email blasts. A large percentage of our success comes from attorney and past client referrals.

A plaintiff that applies for lawsuit funding does not need good credit. In fact, those with poor credit or no credit at all can still obtain funding approval. We do not approve clients based upon their credit history or rating. Furthermore, the plaintiff does not need to be employed. All we care about is the strength of the case. If Lawsuit Financial believes an applicant’s case has a strong chance of success, funding will likely be approved.

Lawsuit Financial understands that most of our clients are in desperate need of financial relief and time is always of the essence. Once we receive a request for funding, Lawsuit Financial will contact the plaintiff’s attorney for necessary documentation and our in-house underwriters will make a funding decision, typically within 24 – 48 hours.

When Lawsuit Financial invests in a case, we do so at our own risk. Funding is provided on a non-recourse basis meaning repayment of the cash advance is made once the case successfully settles. The amount paid comes directly out of the proceeds of the case. If the case is lost, repayment is completely waived.

If you need further information or want to see if your case qualifies for lawsuit funding, it is important to first talk to your attorney. Without attorney cooperation, it will be impossible to obtain a lawsuit cash advance against your case. Next, complete our online form or call our office at (877) 377-7848 for a free, no obligation consultation to understand the best funding solution for you and your case. We also can provide funding for plaintiffs who have received a judgment or the case is under appeal.

Innocent Woman Killed In DUI Street-Racing Crash

According to police reports, two men were street racing when the driver of a BMW struck a woman’s SUV. The SUV then veered into another lane and was struck by the other street-racer’s vehicle. The female driver of the SUV died the next day from internal injuries. The fatal crashed happened on a busy road in Frontenac, Missouri on July 8, 2016.

A lawyer for the family of the deceased woman said two vehicles were racing at more than 110 mph before the crash, based on accident reconstruction analysis and downloads of “black box” recorder data from the racing vehicles. He said the family was waiting until the investigation was complete to decide whether to file a wrongful-death case.

Authorities originally said they planned to seek manslaughter charges against both men, but recently the driver of the BMW was charged with second-degree murder. Prosecutors said the second-degree murder charge was warranted because the man has a prior offense of driving while intoxicated. He pleaded guilty of driving while intoxicated in 2001 in St. Charles County, and he was convicted in 2002 of a similar crime in Los Angeles, according to records.

It is always a tragedy to lose a family member to a senseless act such as this, but the pain in this case may be worse knowing that this fatal crash was caused by a man who made a career out of defending people such as this victim and her family. As a personal injury attorney he was well aware of the consequences of his negligent actions.

If a lawsuit is filed and the plaintiffs need financial assistance, they may want to consider auto accident litigation funding. Auto accident lawsuit funding is a service that provides financial assistance to victims and their families while they wait for their case to be concluded and for justice to prevail.

Litigation funding will help pay necessary bills and expenses, such as medical bills, funeral and burial expenses, auto payments, rent, and other damages as a result of injuries or loss. It is provided based on the merits of the case and the time it will take to achieve that outcome. Funding can often be available in less than 48 hours after receipt of a completed application. There are no monthly fees, no credit checks, and no employment verification. Repayment of the cash advance is only required when the case concludes successfully. If the plaintiff loses, the repayment is waived in its entirety.

Financial relief during the litigation process is only a phone call away. But, it is important to choose an experienced funding company to guide you appropriately. Lawsuit Financial has been a leader in the legal finance industry for over 17 years. We are one of a few legal funding companies where funding comes from our own resources. Don’t let the finish line leave you settling too early for too little. Call us today to discuss funding options available for your case.

Head-On Fatal Collision Likely Due to Speeding and Driving Under the Influence

A Utah woman was killed in a two-car crash after a Jeep drifted into oncoming traffic and collided head-on into her Chevy Malibu. The woman died instantly; the 26-year-old driver of the Jeep was taken to Utah Valley Medical Center in serious condition and is under police guard. The front of the Malibu was crumbled beyond recognition and both drivers had to be extricated from their respective vehicles, according to police. The investigation is ongoing, but speed and alcohol appear to have been factors.

The details of this fatal crash won’t be known until the investigation is complete. Although it may be difficult for surviving family members to think about taking legal action following the loss of loved ones, a wrongful death lawsuit is the only way to hold the negligent party accountable for their actions and for the family to seek compensation for damages. In addition to compensation for funeral costs and other expenses resulting from the death, the family can also seek damages for the loss of present and future earnings as well as intangible elements of life, such as loss of companionship, which cannot be assigned cash value.

Wrongful deaths resulting from an auto accident have the potential to exhaust financial resources, especially when income is impacted. The bills won’t stop coming in just because the family is in a pending lawsuit. To stay financially afloat, auto accident litigationfunding may be a perfect solution.

Litigation funding is a cash advance that assist plaintiffs who are struggling to make ends meet due to injury or death caused by auto accidents. The only collateral required is a pending lawsuit. Once a plaintiff has attorney representation, he/she can apply for this non-recourse cash advance either online or over the phone. The process takes less than five minutes; funding decisions are typically made in less than 48 hours. Funding is based solely on the strength of the lawsuit; there are no credit checks or employment verification. There are no monthly payments; repayment is made once the case successfully settles. If the case is lost, repayment is completely waived.

For any plaintiff who feels they cannot financially wait to seek justice in a wrongful death lawsuit, litigation funding may be the solution. The experienced and professional staff at LawsuitFinancial can answer all your questions and help you understand the lawsuitfinance process. If you do not have an attorney, we have a network of attorneys all over the country waiting to assist you. We would be happy to provide one in your area at no cost.

Widow Files Lawsuit Alleging Distracted Driving Led to Head-On Fatal Crash


Pre-settlement funding can help provide the means for a victim's loved ones to get through the long haul of a wrongful death lawsuit without feeling pressured to settle due to financial burdens.
A wrongful death lawsuit has been filed following a fatal two-vehicle crash in March. The collision occurred after a Ford F-150 crossed the centerline and went into the opposite lane of traffic, striking a Chevy Trailblazer head-on. The 21-year-old driver of the Trailblazer was pronounced dead at the scene. The F-150 driver was treated for non-life threatening injuries. He cited for improper lane use. The deceased leaves behind a wife and two children.
The lawsuit argues that the pick-up truck driver was negligent, did not take proper precautions, and may have been distracted, thus causing the crash. He has a prior felony charge from July after pleading guilty on charges that he possessed nearly 12.5 ounces of marijuana in March 2015, records show. He also has previous arrests on charges of DUI and domestic battery.
Beyond the terrible emotional toll a wrongful death has on those left behind, it can also create significant financial hardships, especially if the victim was the family’s bread winner. Insurance companies put their own financial interests first; they make every attempt to deny, delay, and defend lawsuits and claims. These companies have financial staying power; they have the ability to use a plaintiff’s desperation to force a settlement, often too soon for too little compensation. For those plaintiff who decide to continue the litigation and win the case, the insurance company almost always appeals the verdict, dragging the case out even longer.
A financial desperate plaintiff is not a positive influence on settlement negotiations and will, almost always, settle his/her case for less than fair compensation. Strategic lawsuit funding will often prevent this from happening and will often pay for itself with increased case proceeds. There are no up-front fees or monthly payment obligations, no credit checks or employment verifications, and no effect on credit standing. Because repayment is contingent upon a successful recovery, if the lawsuit is lost, there is no obligation on the part of the plaintiff to repay the cash advance.
The loss of a loved one is devastating enough; don’t let financial hardship add to an already stressful situation. Call Lawsuit Financial Corporation! We are here to help when you need them most – typically in less than 48 hours.

Woman Charged with Drunk Driving in Deadly Indiana Motorcycle Crash

A woman has been charged with drunk driving after she slammed into a motorcycle, seriously injuring the driver and killing his passenger, who suffered severe head injuries.

The negligent driver has been charged with operating while intoxicated causing serious bodily injury, a Level 6 felony, police said. She also faces misdemeanor charges of operating while intoxicated and citations of failure to yield to right of way and refusal to submit to a certified chemical test.

Although no legal action can ever bring back a loved, the family of the deceased will, most likely, seek the advice of an experienced automobile accident attorney who can look closely at the circumstances of this drunk driving accident and hold the negligent driver accountable.

Often times, it will take months if not years to achieve the largest possible settlement or verdict as the insurance company will typically deny, delay, and defend every claim. During this time, the victim’s family will be faced with additional expenses, such as funeral and burial expenses, in addition to ordinary monthly expenses. An experienced and reputable lawsuit funding company may be able to help this family if they are struggling financially.

Lawsuit funding is a cash advance against a pending suit. It provides a strategic advantage for the victim because it gives them leverage against the insurance company; it prevents the plaintiff from being forced to take inadequate offers. With the financial pressure removed, there is no need to resolve any case for less than the full value.

All that is needed to qualify for legal finance services is a valid lawsuit handled by an experienced attorney. The application process is quick and easy; cash can be available in as little as 24 – 48 hours. There are no fees to apply, no credit check, no employment, no monthly payments. Lawsuit funding is risk-free, too because it is contingent upon the actual outcome of the case. If the plaintiff loses his case, he keeps the money free of charge.

Lawsuit funding is not for everyone, but in many cases, it can be the best solution to financial stability until justice is served. Don’t settle for pennies on the dollar; get the help you need when you need it most. Call Lawsuit Financial today.
