A 15-year-old Santa Barbara teen was fatally struck by a flatbed truck while crossing the street in a crosswalk on October 7, 2011. While the investigation into this tragic auto accident is ongoing, the driver of the truck does not appear to have been driving under the influence or distracted by a cell phone.
One month later, his parents filed a wrongful death lawsuit alleging that the 19-year-old driver of the truck was negligent. The suit also claims that the driver violated various statutes, codes, and ordinances including speeding. The couple seeks compensation for funeral and burial expenses, hospital and medical costs, loss of wages and use of property, and loss of love, companionship, and affection.

Is a personal injury and pending lawsuit causing a budget pinch this holiday season? If so, then you may want to consider a lawsuit funding. Often times described as a “lawsuit loan”, lawsuit funding is a non-recourse cash advance against a pending lawsuit.
After a serious injury from an auto accident or medical malpractice negligence, insurance companies are less likely to settle and more willing to deny, delay, and defend. This often leaves plaintiffs with mounting medical bills and other while they wait for a fair settlement. With the holidays upon us, many personal injury victims are feeling the financial pressures associated with the long litigation process. With lost wages, pain and suffering, and ongoing medical treatment, a plaintiff may be wondering how to get through the holidays.
Fortunately, there is an answer – lawsuit funding. If you’re waiting for compensation from a personal injury lawsuit and need cash now, we can help. We provide “fast cash” that can be used to pay important bills and help you enjoy the holidays. Our cash advance is not a “lawsuit loan” because unlike a traditional loan, there are no upfront fees or monthly payments and you only repay the cash advance if, and when, you win your case. If you lose your case, you owe us nothing. That’s right – no recovery, no repayment.
Don’t be forced into an unfair settlement. Get the cash you need for the holidays this year with a lawsuit cash advance. Let a “lawsuit loan” give you peace of mind this holiday season. Apply online or call us 1.866.LIT.FUND.

This case went to trial in Sacramento, California and resulted in a jury award of $29.1 million. The daughter of the elderly woman who died brought this suit against a local nursing home.
In March of 2005, the 79-year old woman slipped and fell while in the home’s care. She died in a hospital on October 7th, 2010. Her daughter filed a wrongful death suit that stated the nursing home had not properly treated or monitored her mother’s hip, nor dealt with her bed sores. The reason? Allegedly, the nursing home was grossly understaffed. Were the owners of the home were more interested in profits than adequate patient care?
The bed sore developed because the woman, who was suffering from Alzheimer’s, was not repositioned, regularly, as required in situations like this. This was a tough elder abuse wrongful death case and the daughter waited a long time for justice. She did not have to wait alone, struggling financially. Cases like this one are excellent candidates for a lawsuit cash advance.
A pre-settlement funding application is easy and may be done by phone or done online; whichever works best for the plaintiff. Litigants do not have to pay upfront fees or make monthly payments. It is no hassle litigation funding and it arrives within 24-48 hours after the application has been approved.
The strategic advantage of a ‘lawsuit loan’ is that it provides the plaintiff the financial strength to await for a reasonable offer from the insurance company or defendant. That means the ability to refuse all low ball settlement offers on cases worth much more than the insulting offer.
Lawsuit funding is used by most people to pay their medical bills, other costs related to their situation, and ordinary but important bills and expenses that accumulate because of injury and/or disability. Repayment is contingent upon case outcome; if you lose the case, you do not have to pay the money back. Thus, this is no-risk legal finance.

This slip and fall accident happened on the set of a movie and involved a set of fake trolley tracks. The set of the show “Public Enemies” had a 1930s flavor to it and to that end, there were rubber cobblestones and trolley tracks on location. As a man was crossing the street near the filming location, he stepped on the fake rubber cobblestones, causing his feet to sink into the rubber. At the same time, his left foot got caught under the metal trolley tracks. As he fell, he was severely injured.
After the accident, the man called a personal injury lawyer and filed a lawsuit alleging there were no warning signs, barriers or other caution signs to let people know about the fake stones and the tracks. The lawsuit seeks compensation for permanent physical injuries, which were not specified in the court documents.
This unfortunate victim might want to find out if he is eligible for lawsuit funding. If he is, he would be able to handle his immediate medical expenses, therapy and other costs related to his accident, as well as other financial obligations. Getting approved for a lawsuit cash advance would let him wait for a decent settlement or court verdict instead of having to take the first offer that comes along.
A “lawsuit loan” costs nothing to apply for and if eligible, this plaintiff would get his funds within 24-48 hours by check or wire. He doesn’t need to have a job to apply and doesn’t need to have a credit check done either. The pre-settlement funding is advanced to him based on what his expected court settlement may be. It might be worth his while to do some research into legal finance services
