Often, in personal injury lawsuits, the defense will try to drag the process out to get you to settle for less because you can no longer afford to hold out for more. Pre-settlement funding provides plaintiffs with extra financial security so that you are free to work with your lawyers to secure the best settlement possible. By taking advantage of legal funding, you can pay your bills while you’re not able to work and have the ability to give your lawyer the adequate time needed to deal with the insurance companies appropriately.
