A lawsuit loan from Stonewood Funding is a cash advance, it is paid back from your settlement, usually before it reaches you. Unlike other forms of loans, it is stress-free, you will have the money you need to live comfortably while you await compensation, and then you will receive the remainder of your settlement once it has been secured. Considering the impact it could have on your ability to recover and live your life, and its potential to increase the amount of compensation you end up with it is absolutely worth it. Although it will cost a small percentage of your eventual settlement, most people end up better off in the long run as they then have the time to fight for a higher settlement figure.
