Frequently Asked Questions About Lawsuit Loans
What exactly is a lawsuit loan and how does it work?
A lawsuit loan (also called pre-settlement funding or a cash advance) is a non-recourse financial advance based on your pending lawsuit. Lawsuits in the state of Virginia can be a huge expense. Medical bills and utility bills, along with the time taken off of work can all add up while you wait for your case to settle. With our Virginia non-recourse cash advance lawsuit loans, you’ll only pay back your loan if you win your case. If you lose you don’t pay back a dime. Therefore, there’s absolutely no risk involved. This funding is not like other typical loans – it’s a cash advance on your future settlement money.
How much money can I get from lawsuit funding?
Typically, you can receive 10-20% of your expected settlement value, ranging from $500 to over $250,000. In some cases, funding can reach up to $2,000,000 based on case value. The exact amount depends on several factors: the strength of your case, the defendant’s insurance coverage, your attorney’s assessment of case value, and your financial needs. We evaluate each case individually to determine the appropriate funding amount that won’t jeopardize your settlement.
What are the requirements to qualify for a settlement advance?
In our experience, you are a strong candidate for a pre-settlement loan in Virginia if:
- You are the plaintiff in an ongoing or pending personal injury case
- You have experienced bodily injuries or property damage due to an accident that was not your fault
- You are represented by an attorney
- You are struggling to pay for your living and/or medical expenses
- Your legal claim is taking a long time to settle
- Your case has solid liability (note: Virginia’s contributory negligence law requires you have no fault)
For a more accurate answer, call us at 866-941-5588 or fill out our instant-response form!
How quickly can I receive my cash advance?
Direct Legal Funding can provide you a cash advance within 24 hours of applying. We offer eligibility assessment within 24 hours, and once approved, can provide funding within 2-3 days to help cover your living expenses, medical bills, mortgage payments, children’s school fees, groceries, etc. For urgent situations, we offer expedited same-day funding.
Are lawsuit loans safe? What are the pros and cons?
Pros of Lawsuit Loans:
- Non-recourse funding – You only pay back if you win your case
- No credit check required – Approval based on case strength, not credit score
- Fast access to cash – Get funds within 24-48 hours for urgent expenses
- Prevents settling for less – Financial stability lets you hold out for fair compensation
- No monthly payments – Repayment only happens at settlement
Cons to Consider:
- Reduces settlement amount – You’ll receive less money at settlement after repayment
- Interest accumulates – The longer your case takes, the more you owe
- Not available for all cases – Only strong liability cases typically qualify
Is it safe? Yes, lawsuit loans from reputable companies like Direct Legal Funding are safe. They are non-recourse, meaning you never owe money if you lose. Virginia does not heavily regulate lawsuit funding, but we follow best practices to ensure ethical treatment. Always work with licensed funding companies, read contracts carefully, and consult your attorney before accepting funding.
Is lawsuit funding legal in Virginia?
Yes, lawsuit funding is completely legal in Virginia. According to Virginia law, lawsuit loans are simply the assignment of legal case proceeds, which makes pre-settlement loans possible without requiring the same regulation as traditional bank loans. Virginia lawyers are allowed to help clients pursue and find lawsuit loans if they note that the client needs help with living expenses. However, a lawyer themselves is not allowed to lend any funds directly to their clients.
Does Virginia’s contributory negligence law affect my eligibility?
Yes, Virginia follows a pure contributory negligence system, which is crucial for lawsuit loan eligibility. Under this law, if you contributed to your injury in any way – even just 1% – you may be barred from recovering damages. This makes it essential that your case shows clear liability on the part of the defendant. We carefully evaluate this aspect when reviewing your application, as cases with any plaintiff fault typically cannot qualify for funding in Virginia.
Virginia State Laws for Personal Injury Cases and Lawsuit Funding
Virginia’s court system handles thousands of personal injury claims annually, with case backlogs meaning plaintiffs often wait 2-4 years for trial, making lawsuit loans essential for financial survival during litigation.
Key Virginia Laws Affecting Your Case and Funding:
| Legal Feature | Virginia Law |
|---|---|
| Lawsuit Funding Legality | Legal and largely unregulated – no statutory caps on rates or amounts |
| Statute of Limitations | 2 years for personal injury (Va. Code § 8.01-243); 2 years for wrongful death |
| Contributory Negligence Rule | Pure contributory negligence – if plaintiff is even 1% at fault, no recovery allowed (Baskett v. Banks, 45 S.E.2d 173) |
| Auto Insurance Requirements | Minimum liability: $25,000 per person, $50,000 per accident bodily injury, $20,000 property damage |
| Add-On State Status | Virginia is an “add-on” state – PIP benefits are optional, no limitations on tort lawsuits |
| Workers’ Comp Cases | Not eligible for lawsuit funding due to payment structure (attorney and plaintiff receive separate checks) |
How These Laws Affect Your Lawsuit Funding:
- No rate caps in VA – Shop around for the best rates (we offer as low as 2%)
- Strict contributory negligence – Cases must show zero plaintiff fault to qualify for funding
- Short statute of limitations – Act quickly; you only have 2 years to file your lawsuit
- Add-on state benefits – Optional PIP coverage may supplement your lawsuit loan needs
- Workers’ comp exclusion – These cases cannot be funded due to payment logistics
Important: Virginia’s pure contributory negligence rule makes it critical to have strong liability evidence. Our funding experts carefully evaluate this aspect to ensure your case qualifies. Always review funding agreements with your attorney before signing.
