If you’re a plaintiff in a lawsuit, remember this term: “without recourse”. It’s legal jargon that basically means, “You don’t have to pay it back.” The money you receive from Tribeca Lawsuit Loans isn’t really a loan at all.
We’ll give you the money if we take your case on — while you’re still in the midst of your lawsuit — and only get paid back from part of the settlement funds if you win.
Our legal experts will meet with your lawyers and discuss your case. If you’re offered lawsuit funding, you can feel confident of winning your case. But it doesn’t matter. You’ll be paid either way.

Personal injuries can be life altering events, and personal injury lawsuits are notorious for taking a long time to work through courts or settlement negotiations. On top of that, there are state specific laws and requirements that can affect your settlement.
States in the US follow either a fault-based
system, or a no-fault-based system.
The amount of damages you suffered will
serve as an upper limit to the amount
you can recover in a settlement or
a lawsuit. Some states have a
cap on noneconomic damages
in personal injury cases.
The most common state laws that can impact your eligibility for personal injury pre-settlement funding are statute of limitations laws. In some states, you can have as little as a year to file a lawsuit for a personal injury claim.

Fault does not bear significance
in seeking compensation; your

A lawsuit loan is a non-recourse cash advance provided to plaintiffs involved in pending litigation. It is also known as pre-settlement funding or legal financing. This financial instrument allows individuals to access a portion of their anticipated settlement before their case concludes. Unlike traditional loans, repayment is contingent on the case’s success. The advance helps plaintiffs cover living expenses, medical bills, or legal costs during lengthy legal proceedings. Lawsuit loans bridge the gap between filing a claim and receiving compensation, empowering plaintiffs to pursue their cases without financial strain. Tribeca is a leader in lawsuit loans and pre-settlement funding.
The lawsuit loan process begins with your application, typically involving case details and attorney information. Funding companies like us then evaluate the case’s merit, considering factors like liability, damages, and the defendant’s ability to pay. If approved, the company’s underwriter offers a funding amount based on the estimated settlement value. Upon acceptance, funds are disbursed quickly, often within 24-48 hours when working with us. Repayment occurs only if the case succeeds, with the advance plus fees deducted from the settlement. The process involves no credit checks or income verification, as the case itself serves as collateral. Tribeca charges simple interest and capped deals only, unlike our competitors.
Funds from pre-settlement funding can be used at your discretion, with no restrictions imposed by us or your personal injury attorney or the defendant’s insurance company. Common uses we see include covering living expenses such as rent, mortgage payments, utilities, and groceries. Many plaintiffs use the advance to pay for medical treatments or rehabilitation related to their injuries. Others allocate funds to cover legal fees or case-related expenses. The flexibility allows plaintiffs to maintain financial stability during lengthy legal proceedings, preventing premature settlements due to financial pressure. Some use the funds to replace lost wages or invest in adaptive equipment necessitated by their injuries.
While legal funding offer financial relief, they come with considerations. The primary obligation is repayment from the settlement if the case succeeds. However, as non-recourse funding, plaintiffs owe nothing if they lose their case. The main risk is with fees, as interest rates or funding fees can add up, emphasizing the importance of understanding the terms and working with a reputable company. Some states or jurisdictions we fund in have regulations on interest rates and fee structures. If unsure, it’s best to consult with an attorney to fully understand the implications.
State laws can impact settlement loans (pre-settlement and post-settlement loans which we offer), influencing their availability and terms. Key factors include statutes of limitations, which determine the timeframe for filing lawsuits, and comparative fault rules, affecting potential settlement amounts. Some states have specific regulations governing lawsuit funding, potentially capping interest rates or requiring certain disclosures. The legal classification of lawsuit funding – as a loan or investment – varies by state, affecting usury laws’ applicability. States’ insurance requirements and minimum policy limits can influence funding amounts.
Most lawsuit funding companies require plaintiffs to have legal representation to qualify for funding. This requirement serves multiple purposes: attorneys validate the case’s legitimacy, provide necessary case documentation, and offer professional judgment on the claim’s potential value. Lawyers also act as intermediaries, ensuring proper communication between the plaintiff and the funding company. Having an attorney typically increases the likelihood of a favorable case outcome, which aligns with the funding company’s interests. Additionally, attorneys can advise plaintiffs on the implications of accepting funding and help negotiate terms.
With Tribeca, the approval and funding process for lawsuit loans is swift, designed to address plaintiffs’ urgent financial needs. Initial approval decisions often occur within 24-48 hours of application submission. This rapid turnaround is facilitated by our streamlined case evaluation processes and direct communication with your attorney. Once approved, fund disbursement can happen as quickly as the same day, though it may take up to a few business days depending on the chosen payment method. Factors affecting the timeline include the case’s complexity, the completeness of the application, and the responsiveness of the plaintiff’s attorney.
Taking pre-settlement funding doesn’t directly impact the value of your settlement, as determined by the merits of your case and negotiations. However, it can indirectly affect the net amount you receive. The loan amount, plus associated fees or interest, is repaid from your settlement, reducing your final compensation. This financial obligation might influence your decision-making during settlement negotiations, potentially affecting your willingness to accept offers. On the positive side, lawsuit funding can provide financial stability, allowing you to pursue your case fully without settling prematurely due to financial pressure.
The taxability of lawsuit loan proceeds is a complex issue that often depends on the nature of the underlying legal claim and how the funds are used. Generally, the advance itself is not considered taxable income, as it’s viewed as a contingent transaction rather than a traditional loan. However, the tax implications of the eventual settlement may vary. Compensation for physical injuries or sickness is typically not taxable, while punitive damages or awards for emotional distress may be. Interest accrued on the loan might have tax implications. Given the complexity and case-specific nature of this issue, it’s advisable to consult with a tax professional to understand the potential tax consequences in your situation.
