Do You Need Pre-Settlement Funding for a Boy Scouts Sexual Abuse Case?
Cases related to Boy Scout sexual abuse are complicated, particularly because investigating these claims can take some time. Unfortunately, investigations have uncovered that the Boy Scouts of America has a long history of sexual abusers in their ranks. A New York Times article reported that Boy Scouts of America executives kept information related to alleged instances of child sexual abuse from law enforcement for decades.
The article also uncovered that Boy Scouts leaders kept the names of the alleged abusers in a database, which has since been called the “perversion files.” Their reports showed that more than 12,000 children have been known to be sexually abused while participating in Boy Scouts activities.
Given the length of time and depth of the problem, it can take years to resolve your Boy Scouts of America lawsuit. Sex abuse pre-settlement funding lets you pay bills now while your case progresses. Direct Legal Funding can offer you this funding to help you pursue your fight for justice.
What is the Approval Process for a Boy Scouts Lawsuit Loan?
When our funding experts works with your attorney to analyze your Boy Scout lawsuit loan situation to estimate how much money we need to provide, we will not be looking at your personal finances or your credit score. Some of the factors that we use to make our decision about legal funding include:
- The overall strength of your claim
- The expected duration of your lawsuit
- How much you expect in a settlement or jury verdict
When Will You Have to Pay a Boy Scouts Legal Loan Back?
You will not have to pay back your Boy Scouts legal loan until after your case successfully concludes and you receive a settlement or jury verdict in your favor. When this occurs, the Boy Scouts of America will send a check to your attorney, who will then pay us back the agreed-upon amount and deduct their legal fees. You will be issued a check for the remaining balance.
If your case is not successful, for whatever reason, you will not have to worry about paying a dime back to Direct Legal Funding. Our loans are classified as non-recourse, which means you will not be liable for the debt, even if you have spent all of the money we provided.
