Pennsylvania Legal Financing
Pennsylvania legal financing is becoming popular amounts plaintiffs throughout the state. This is because a legal finance company will provide plaintiff money against the uncertainties of a potential recovery. A legal financing contract provides claimant money against a recovery on a non recourse basis. This means regardless of the outcome the borrower will only pay back the lawsuit lending company with the proceeds from the case. Should the claimant lose or fail to collect a recovery they are not responsible for paying back the advance. While legal financing in Pennsylvania may seem like a new concept of lending, it has been around for more than 10+ years.

There are many reasons why Pennsylvania legal financing is used by litigants. When an individual is actively going through a suit they may have to make a tough decision on whether to settle for less or keep fighting for a larger payout. Without legal financing some of our clients were headed for a financial catastrophe. Legal financing is popular amongst those individuals that have lost a job or used up their financial reserves waiting for a settlement. The money may be needed to help pay for bills or future surgeries. Ultimately it's a tool that provides the client the staying power needed to fend off unjust and unaffordable settlements from the insurance industry or defense.
Pennsylvania legal financing is provided by individual investors, hedge funds, some backs and institutional funds. The recent popularity of legal financing has resulted in major news stories from some of the top media outlets. Insurance companies are trying to shed a bad light on the industry because they are seeing their costs of litigating increasing and potential profits decreasing due to higher settlements and verdicts. The increased interest of the legal financing industry has resulted in a surge in people applying for legal financing.
Like any investment there are certain risks involved. Because legal financing in Pennsylvania is offered on a non-recourse basis investors take a change in lending against certain uncertainties. It can be very challenging determining which cases will settle and which ones will lose. In order to minimize the risk a company will hire an underwriter to review each case. During this process an underwriter is interested in liability, negligence and expected recoveries. If a company believes the claimant will win the case and there are no issues with collectability by the defense, they will approve the client. However if there is great uncertainty with the case or the proceeds from the case, a lawsuit lending company will ultimately deny the applicant.
