We will, typically, request the following documents:

- Completed Attorney Questionnaire (Your attorney completes this for us)
- Police or incident/accident report
- Proof of defendant's insurance and coverage limits

- Other relevant case-specific documents
After we receive the documents we need, we will make a funding decision within 24-48 hours. Funding is based upon case strength; a professional evaluation of the probabilities that the case will settle successfully or has good potential to win at trial.
Receiving Your Plaintiff Funding
Once we've reviewed your file, one of our pre-settlement funding specialists will contact you by phone. Assuming you are approved for lawsuit funding, pre-settlement funding or post settlement funding, we will advise you of the amount of legal funding you have been approved for.
If you accept our offer, we will prepare and email or overnight a Case Investment Agreement to you or your attorney. Both of you need to read and sign the Agreement where appropriate (your attorney signs only an acknowledgement of our case proceeds lien on your case).
When the agreement is returned to our office, we will wire the approved funds to whatever account you direct us to, or provide a check by overnight delivery for your settlement funding or pre-settlement funding.
The sooner we receive the Case Investment Agreement, the sooner you'll receive your lawsuit funding advance. We provide same day wire service or next day check delivery
