Most attorneys agree that legal funding loans*, when used responsibly, can be a game-changer that can help plaintiffs maintain financial control while they wait for their settlement.
How Lawsuit Loans Works
Plaintiff legal funding goes by a lot of different names including lawsuit loans, settlement loans, and settlement funding. Whatever you choose to call it, it’s not actually a loan. Instead, it is an outcome-contingent lawsuit cash advance against a portion of your future anticipated settlement award.
Legal funding cash advances are approved based on the strengths and merits of your lawsuit rather than your credit score, so it’s easy to qualify. Plus there are no employment or income requirements like bank loans have, and there are no monthly payments to deal with either.
The advance is only repaid after your case is resolved successfully; either by settlement or jury verdict. And if you lose your case, you keep the money we advanced and owe nothing.
That’s what we mean by 100% risk-free.

Legal Funding FAQ
What Is Legal Funding?
Legal funding is not a loan. Instead, cash advances must only be repaid after the underlying lawsuit is resolved successfully; either by negotiated settlement or jury verdict. If the plaintiff loses, they are under no obligation to repay the funds that were advanced.
All plaintiff funding provided by TriMark Legal Funding is non-recourse.
How Much Does Lawsuit Funding Cost?
The quickest and most accurate way to find out how much a lawsuit loan will cost on your case is to give us a call at (877) 932-2628.
What Is The Maximum Lawsuit Cash Advance I Can Get?
❇️ Up to 20% of estimated net award on pending cases.
❇️ Up to 50% of actual net award on settled cases.
How Does Legal Funding (Lawsuit Loans) Help Plaintiffs?
First, legal funding can provide immediate financial relief in as little as 12 to 24 hours. It’s money that can be used to catch up on bills, stop evictions, foreclosures, repossessions, etc., and pay day-to-day essential living expenses like rent or mortgage, car and insurance payments, utilities, groceries, and medical expenses.
Second, eliminating financial pressure means plaintiffs are no longer forced to accept the first lowball settlement offer they get. They can afford to hold out for a potentially larger settlement payout. At the same time, settlement funding can give attorneys extra time to negotiate the maximum compensation their clients deserve.
Even insurance industry insiders have acknowledged that litigation funding helps plaintiffs win bigger payouts.

How Are Legal Funding Rates Determined?
Risk is determined by the degree of case development i.e. how long the case has been open, how much work has been done on it, and whether the case is settled, pending, or on appeal. And if pending, whether liability has been accepted or is being contested by the defendant.
For example, a settled case where an agreement has been reached, the claim release has been signed and the plaintiff is just waiting for the settlement check to arrive has very little risk.
On the other hand, a case with accepted liability in the midst of active settlement negotiations still has inherent risks. But it is far less risk than a case where the defendant has denied liability and is dead-set on having his day in court before a jury.
Likewise, regarding case development, a case that was only opened a week ago has far more unknowns i.e. risk, than say, a case that has been open for 2 years and has depositions, expert reports, and a plaintiff who has had 2 surgeries and fully recovered from her injuries.
Does Settlement funding Interfere with Attorney-Client Confidentiality?
Neither plaintiffs nor their attorneys waive confidentiality or any other legal rights by working with a lawsuit advance company.
