Driver Distraction May Have Been Cause In Fatal North Carolina Rollover Crash

December 6, 2016

A serious auto accident in Charlotte, N.C. resulted in one person dead and three others injured.
Police said a female driver lost control of her Ford Explorer and ran off the right side of the road. When she attempted to drive the vehicle back onto the road she overcorrected to the left, entering into oncoming traffic. Overcorrecting again, she lost control and rolled the car, before it came to a rest on its side approximately 30 feet off the road in a field. The front passenger died at the scene. The driver and two minors in the rear of the vehicle were transported to an area hospital with non-life threatening injuries. The driver has been charged with misdemeanor death by vehicle.

The investigation is ongoing, but police said it doesn’t appear speed or alcohol were factors in this crash. Could it be another case of distracted driving?

Far too many serious and fatal crashes are caused due to a distracted driver, whether it be talking or texting on the phone, looking at a GPS, fidgeting with the radio or other controls, eating, and more. When a loved one is killed due to driver negligence, the family may wish to file a wrongful death lawsuit.

Life necessities won’t wait for a lawsuit to settle, but victims should also not be forced to settle for pennies on the dollar jut because of pressing financial needs. If the family retains an attorney and files a claim, they are eligible for litigation funding.

Litigation funding is a cash advance against a pending lawsuit to supplement loss of income, pay funeral expenses, pay down debt, and cover everyday living expenses in order to wait for fair compensation. With the financial pressure removed, there is no need to resolve any case for less than the full case value.
The application process is quick and easy, with no cost to apply, no upfront fees, no monthly payments, no credit checks and no hassles. Once a plaintiff is approved for funding, the money arrives typically within 24-48 hours. Repayment of the cash advance is made from the case proceeds, but if the plaintiff is not successful, there is no obligation to pay us back.

If you have lost a loved one due to the negligence of another driver, have filed a wrongful death lawsuit, and experiencing financial hardship, consider litigation funding from Litigation Funding Corporation. We can be reached at 1-866-LIT-FUND or by completing our online contact form.

Two Sisters Hit, One Killed, By Alleged Drunk and Distracted Driver At Entrance of Walmart

October 24, 2016

Earlier this month, two sisters were hit in a crosswalk as they approached the entrance of a Wal-Mart. Witnesses said the driver of a Ford Explorer was driving excessively fast, talking on his cellphone and looking into the store while driving along the building’s entrance. One of the women was pinned underneath the SUV. Both women were taken to the hospital, where one died the next day from injuries sustained. The driver was taken into custody and charged with felony DUI causing death and DUI causing serious bodily injury. Our hearts go out to the family in this terrible DUI accident.

As the criminal case is underway, the family of these sisters should consider filing a wrongful death and personal injury lawsuit against the driver. A lawsuit can provide the victim and family with essential compensation for replacing the income, and also help to pay for their emotional pain and suffering, as well as any medical and funeral expenses.

For plaintiffs faced with depletion of financial resources and possibly dealing with severe injuries, and/or loss of employment, a plaintiff might give up and settle the claim for too little. Another option would be to hold out for just compensation by securing a lawsuit cash advance, known as litigation funding.

Litigation financing is an excellent way to pay funeral expenses, medical expenses, regular monthly bills and other necessary expenses. It also helps to prevent damage to a plaintiff’s credit score. There are no monthly payments to make; we are not a bank. There are no credit checks; your credit history does not matter and you don’t need to prove employment. Best of all, litigation funding is repaid only upon a successful settlement. If the plaintiff does not receive a favorable cash settlement, he/she need not pay back the cash advanced.

In the right situation, for the right plaintiff, litigation funding is clearly a service that plaintiffs and personal injury attorneys should consider at a strategic time in the litigation. Call or visit Litigation Funding Corporation online to learn how we can relieve your financial concerns, prevent you from settling your valuable case for less than it is worth, and continue to provide you with needed assistance throughout the long legal process. We want you to focus on your lawsuit; we want you to obtain full compensation for your injuries, no matter how long it takes.

Pre-Settlement Funding For Drunk Driver Lawsuit

October 14, 2014

A woman was killed in a three-vehicle accident when her Saturn was struck head-on by the driver of a Ford Explorer. The Explorer crossed the double yellow line, sideswiping a Camry before slamming into the Saturn. It is alleged that the driver of the Explorer was under the influence of alcohol at the time of the accident. He suffered severe injuries and was transported to a local hospital. The woman was pronounced dead at the scene. She was the single mother of a 5-year-old daughter.

While the investigation continues, the woman’s family should consult an experienced auto accident attorney. If the family proceeds with a wrongful death lawsuit, they may face financial difficulties while waiting for justice to be served. In addition to funeral and burial expenses, this family may be struggling to pay any outstanding bills the woman may have incurred, as well as expenses for the care of her daughter.

A solution to coping financially is pre-settlement funding, a cash advance against the pending claim. Pre-settlement funding companies realize that serious and deadly drunk driving accidents can take years to settle. With loss of income and additional expenses, financial devastation can lead a plaintiff to consider a quick settlement. Fortunately, there is no need to sacrifice a valuable case for pennies on the dollar with pre-settlement funding. Litigation Funding Corporation can’t rewind time so the accident never happened, but we can help you to survive the financial turmoil by providing the money you need now to hold out for the settlement you deserve.

The only requirement to apply is a valid lawsuit, legal representation, and a completed online application. Once your attorney provides supporting documentation, your case application will be reviewed and a decision made. If approved, funds can be made available in less than 48 hours. Pre-settlement funding clients pay nothing until the case successfully settles; this includes no upfront fees or monthly payments. Best of all, if you lose your case keep the money free of charge.

Call us to determine if pre-settlement funding is right for your case.

Superstitious Teen Causes Three-Vehicle Accident After Holding Breath in Tunnel

May 27, 2014

It never ceases to amaze me what foolish things some people will do while driving a vehicle.
A 19-year-old Oregon man caused a three-vehicle accident after he lost consciousness and control of the car as he drove through a tunnel near Portland. The teen’s 1990 Toyota Camry drifted over the centerline and struck a Ford Explorer head-on. Both vehicles struck the walls of the tunnel before a pick-up truck slammed into the Camry. The teen told police he fainted after holding his breath while driving through a tunnel. Although it is unclear why he was holding his breath, state police said some people do it as part of a game or superstition. Fortunately, no one was seriously injured; no lives were lost.

Moving vehicles are not toys; they are not games. Far too often, young drivers choose to take risks and engage in dangerous activities while behind the wheel. When a driver makes such decisions s/he puts countless motorists, passengers, and pedestrians at risk and may be held liable for more than simply breaking the law. An attorney can help victims pursue compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and other damages. If medical expenses, lost wages, and daily-living expenses create an overwhelming financial burden, plaintiffs may be eligible for lawsuit funding.

Litigation Funding Corp. is a legal funding company that understands how difficult the litigation process can be especially if the bills are piling up. Insurance companies will even use the technique of dragging out a case, forcing the victim to settle for less than the actual value of the case. Litigation Funding Corp. can help plaintiffs get back on their feet and maintain financial stability. With our lawsuit cash advance program, plaintiffs have the ability to receive the highest possible settlement. Our “lawsuit loans” are based on the strength and merits of the case; not credit or employment history. Once an application is completed and approved, the lawsuit cash advance can be available within 24 hours.

If you were involved in an accident that resulted from another person’s negligence, you may be owed compensation. Whether you are uncertain of the cause of your accident or your accident is still under investigation, you could benefit from the help of an experienced auto accident attorney. Don’t assume your injuries and losses are not severe enough to warrant compensation; no auto accident should be taken lightly. Once you have filed a lawsuit, if you need immediate cash while your case is pending, take a moment to explore your options with Litigation Funding Corp.
