At Mustang Funding, we offer capital solutions to plaintiffs in a wide range of civil lawsuits and personal injury cases, including car accidents, wrongful death, product liability, medical malpractice, pharmaceutical litigation, unlawful termination, workplace discrimination, the Jones Act (for injured maritime workers), and more. Pre-settlement funding can be a financial lifeline for plaintiffs waiting for their cases to be resolved. It is like a cash advance on an anticipated settlement or verdict. The future settlement serves as collateral.
We are a leading provider of pre-settlement funding for plaintiffs, and getting a cash advance against a pending settlement or court award has never been easier. Contact us today to see if your case qualifies.
Understanding Pre-Settlement Funding
Before diving into the specifics of qualifying cases, it’s important to understand how pre-settlement funding works. It is a non-recourse cash advance, meaning you only repay it if you win your case. If you lose, you owe nothing. It can help cover daily living expenses, mortgage payments, credit card bills, tuition, and medical bills; there are typically no restrictions on how the funds are used. The application process is simple, with no hidden fees.
Personal Injury
Personal injury claims are among the most common cases for pre-settlement funding, as they often involve clear liability and may include:
- Car Accidents: If you were injured in a motor vehicle collision and are pursuing a claim against a negligent driver or other responsible party, you may qualify for funding.
- Slip and Fall Accidents: Injuries caused by hazardous conditions on another person’s property, such as wet floors, uneven surfaces, or poor lighting, may be eligible for funding during litigation.
- Wrongful Death: Surviving dependents, such as a spouse or child, may be eligible for pre-settlement funding while pursuing compensation for the losses resulting from a loved one’s wrongful death.
Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice cases fall under the broader category of personal injury claims and may qualify for pre-settlement funding. These cases arise when a patient suffers harm due to the negligence of a healthcare provider, such as a doctor, nurse, or hospital. Examples include:
- Surgical Errors: Harm resulting from mistakes made during surgical procedures.
- Misdiagnosis or Delayed Diagnosis: Failure to identify a medical condition in a timely manner, leading to worsened outcomes.
- Birth Injuries: Injuries to a newborn caused by negligent actions during labor or delivery.
Due to their legal complexity, the need for expert testimony, and the potential for significant financial recovery, medical malpractice claims are frequently considered strong candidates for pre-settlement funding.
Product Liability
These cases arise when a product, due to a design flaw, manufacturing defect, or inadequate warning, causes harm to a consumer, including the following:
- Defective Medical Devices: Injuries resulting from devices that malfunction or fail to perform as intended.
- Dangerous Drugs: Harm caused by pharmaceutical products that were improperly tested, inadequately labeled, or had undisclosed side effects.
- Consumer Products: Injuries linked to everyday items that are unsafe due to poor design or manufacturing errors.
Product liability claims often involve complex litigation against large manufacturers or distributors and can result in significant settlements. This makes them well-suited for pre-settlement funding, which can help plaintiffs manage financial pressures during a protracted legal process.
