It’s a horrible thought, it’s been 18 months since your accident and your lawsuit has finally reached a favorable verdict and you were awarded monetary compensation. Then, you get notification from your attorney that the defendant in your lawsuit is appealing the verdict. This means you’re going to have to wait even longer before you can receive compensation; while hoping the verdict remains the same in the higher court the case is being appealed in. What can a plaintiff in this type of situation do?  The plaintiff has the option of applying for a lawsuit post settlement loan.

A post settlement loan is really the same concept as a pre lawsuit settlement loan, instead it’s applied for after a verdict has been reached in favor of the plaintiff, but the defendant has appealed the case in a higher court. Appealing a lawsuit verdict is common practice in civil law. It also prevents the plaintiff from getting his compensation and allows the defendant to try and over turn the verdict in a higher court; thus leaving the plaintiff with nothing. By the end of a lawsuit the plaintiff will most likely have lots of bills to pay (including medical, legal, car\auto, etc). This is why a lawsuit post settlement loan can be an excellent choice in a situation where the defendant has appealed the verdict.

A lawsuit post settlement loan is the same concept as a standard lawsuit loan; the only difference is you apply for a post settlement loan “after” a verdict has been reached and the defendant is appealing the verdict; unlike a traditional pre settlement loan where you’re getting the money “before” a verdict has been reached. Post settlement loans are non-recourse debts; this is due to the fact that if the defendant’s appeal gets the verdict overturned you are “not” required to pay back the money given to you via the post settlement loan.

As you can tell this is an excellent way for a plaintiff to access to funds if they are in need of cash. It’s common for plaintiffs in long drawn out lawsuits to build up debt during the period of the lawsuit; some plaintiffs even get on the verge of bankruptcy or actually have to file for bankruptcy. Don’t be one of the statistics, let a post settlement loan prevent you from financial ruin and get access to cash you need, when you need it. If you’re ready to learn more about a post or pre settlement loan then continue below.

Nursing home malpractice is unbelievably widespread form of abuse in the United States of America. It is consider negligence or an intentional act of abuse by a nursing home service provider; which can cause mental, physically or social harm to the resident. Around 1.5 million Americans are currently cared for in some type of nursing home or nursing care facility. Sadly abuse is common in these types of facilities and the results are a nursing home malpractice lawsuit. This can be a financial strain on the family bring forth the suit, including relocation costs of the family member, legal costs, etc. A lawsuit settlement loan is an excellent no-risk method to cover these costs.

A lawsuit settlement loan is a type of lending product, but in theory not actually a loan. It’s really considered a non-recourse debt; which is a secured loan backed by collateral. In this case, your future nursing home malpractice settlement is your collateral. The reason you can consider a settlement loan as a no-risk option is the fact that if you happen to lose your case you do not have to repay the lawsuit settlement loan. If you do win your lawsuit, the settlement loan is repaid in full, plus interest and any underwriting fees. If your family is struggling to meet the financial needs of your pending nursing home malpractice lawsuit and relocation efforts than a settlement loan might be right for you.

The approval process of a settlement loan is different from traditional loans. You aren’t required to provide your credit history, employment history or income status. The settlement loan provider will review your case; if it has merit and is a strong suit against the nursing home facility they will approve you for your settlement loan and you should receive your money with 48-72 of submitting your application. Frivolous suits against nursing home providers will not be funded; these companies do their research and will deny any settlement loan request that appears to be frivolous.
