Can I get a second pre-settlement advance?
Seth
Pre-settlement funding – also referred to as lawsuit financing, a lawsuit loan or settlement cash advance – is an up-front payment against the future proceeds of your lawsuit.
A pre-settlement advance can help alleviate financial strain by providing extra money to make rent or mortgage payments, pay bills, and cover daily living expenses while you await settlement. And unlike a loan, a cash advance against your future settlement is non-recourse and there are no interim payments. Non-recourse funding means you have no obligation for repayment if your case is lost or dismissed.
I already have a pre-settlement advance with another company, can I get a second one with Pioneer?
Even if you’ve already taken out a pre-settlement advance against your lawsuit, you can get additional funding from Pioneer as long as your case supports it. As a rule of thumb, cash advances are typically limited to 5-10% of the estimated value of your case. Final approval, however, may vary depending on a number of variables including the type and expected duration of your case.
Once you apply, Pioneer will review your case and consult your attorney to determine whether your case supports additional pre-settlement funding. If you’re approved, we would pay off the balance with the initial funding company and send you additional funds.
