Legal funding is perhaps the fastest-growing trend in the legal industry. This article explains the types of funding available to attorneys and plaintiffs, including pre-settlement funding, and post-settlement funding, and lawsuit cash advance in general. It also explains why lawsuit funding is not a lawsuit loan. Lawsuit funding provides a valuable service to plaintiffs and attorneys in helping level the playing field against deep-pocketed defendants.

Lawsuit cash advance is a form of plaintiff funding that enables lawsuit plaintiffs to cover basic living expenses such as rent, mortgage payments, food, and utilities. Post-settlement funding or settled case funding is another form of plaintiff funding that helps plaintiffs pay their bills while waiting for their settlements to be paid. Plaintiff funding is important because often plaintiffs have suffered injuries which make it difficult or impossible to work. Previously, the inability to pay expenes led some plaintiffs to accept settlements which were lower than they deserved. Plaintiff funding gives plaintiffs more options and choices, enabling them to receive the recovery they need.

More often than they would like, lawsuit plaintiffs find that they do not receive payment for their cases immediately after settlement occurs. Litigation funding companies can help bridge the gap by providing what is known as post-settlement funding or settled case funding. LawCash provides the fastest settled case funding with its One Hour Funding® program. Post-settlement funding is a valuable service that can relieve stress during the final phase of the litigation process.
