Plain-English guide

What this means before you apply

Use this page to understand the topic, compare the practical issues, and prepare the details a funding company may ask for.

What funders usually review

Most reviews consider attorney representation, case type, state, liability, insurance, treatment status, expected recovery, prior liens, and prior funding.

What can slow things down

Missing attorney contact details, unclear liability, incomplete treatment information, existing advances, or delayed law firm verification can slow funding review.

What to compare

Compare funding amount, payoff structure, fees, how cost changes over time, whether payments are monthly, and what happens if the case does not recover.

When to continue

If you have an active attorney-backed case and need money before settlement, continue to CasePayNow.com to request a funding review.

Questions to ask before choosing a funding company

The best funding decision usually comes from understanding cost, timing, repayment, attorney cooperation, and how much of the settlement may remain after payoff.

Traditional loan

  • Credit and income usually matter.
  • Monthly payments may be required.
  • You may owe even if the case fails.

Pre-settlement funding

  • Case strength matters most.
  • No monthly payment while pending.
  • Approved non-recourse funding is generally repaid from case proceeds if the case recovers.
