The Legality of Pre-Settlement Funding in Alaska
Lawsuit loans must abide by strict requirements in order to be legal. This is because, across the U.S., the act of “champerty,” by which one person finances another person’s litigation, is illegal under specific circumstances.
Alaska’s Supreme Court continues to uphold its anti-champerty laws in decisions like:
- Wichman v. Benner (1994)
- Deal v. Kearney (1993)
However, the courts in Alaska have not found lawsuit lending companies to be guilty of champerty, which means pre-settlement funding is legal in Alaska. Tribeca is one of the few companies that provides Alaska plaintiffs with the funding they need since we offer loans in a variety of states. We know the laws and abide by industry best practices.
Laws and Regulations for Lawsuit Funding in Alaska
Average Funding Range
On average, Tribeca Lawsuit Loans’ funding range varyies between $500 and $2,500,000, depending on the case value.
Fault Laws
Alaska operates under the Modified Comparative Fault 51% Bar, stipulated by I.C. § 34-51-2-6. This law bars plaintiffs from recovery if they are more than 50% at fault. If under 50% at fault, their damages will be reduced pro-rata.
Statute of Limitations
The statute of limitations in Alaska for filing a lawsuit is 2 years, as per Sec. 9.10.070.
Insurance Policy Limits
The minimum policy limits for bodily injury and property damage in Alaska are as follows: $50,000 bodily injury liability per person, $100,000 bodily injury liability per accident, and $25,000 property damage liability per accident.
UIM Auto Insurance Limits
The minimum Underinsured Motorist (UIM) auto insurance limits in Alaska are defined as 50/100/25 for liability.
Workers’ Compensation Eligibility
Workers are eligible for compensation in Alaska.
While pre-settlement funding can be seen as an act of champerty—an illegal agreement in which a party funds a lawsuit they had no previous interest in to share in the proceeds—Alaska’s stance is more nuanced. The Alaska Supreme Court, despite the common law prohibition of champerty, hasn’t enforced this in any recent litigation funding case, leading to no pre-settlement funding agreements being invalidated on champerty grounds.
Tribeca Lawsuit Loans is a fully licensed provider of pre-settlement loans in Alaska. The plaintiffs can use their lawsuit cash advance in any manner they see fit, which can prove valuable for managing debts, medical bills, and other expenses.
How Lawsuit Loans Protect Alaska Plaintiffs
This isn’t just any type of loan. A lawsuit cash advance is considered non-recourse debt, which means:
- You are NOT personally liable for the debt.
- We are NOT repaid out of your bank account.
- The most we can take as repayment is the agreed-upon portion of your compensation.
- If you lose your lawsuit, you don’t owe us anything at all!
In such an arrangement, the lender takes on all the risk. We think that’s fair since you and your family have already suffered enough as the plaintiff in a serious lawsuit.
How Much Money Can You Get?
Since repayment comes directly out of your compensation package, the details of your lawsuit determine how much funding we can provide. The FREE application form will ask for information like:
- How long your lawsuit is expected to last
- How much you expect to get in compensation
Additionally, we may need to evaluate the apportioned fault in your case. Alaska uses a system called contributory negligence when determining compensation awards in court, per Alaska Statutes §09.17.060. For example, if you are found to be 15% at fault for your damages, your total compensation would be reduced by 15% as well.

FAQs
Explain the typical civil lawsuit process?
Initiating a lawsuit or seeking pre-settlement funding begins with the plaintiff – the person or entity lodging a legal complaint against another party, the defendant. The plaintiff must file their claim in a court that has the authority to hear and decide on their case. This claim details the reasons for the action and the specific grievances or damages the plaintiff is looking to recoup from the defendant.
This stage involves drafting pleadings – documents that lay out the respective stands of the plaintiff and defendant. These pleadings also contain preliminary evidence backing their claims. Both the plaintiff and the defendant are represented by their chosen lawyers.
Subsequently, the lawsuit enters the discovery phase. This pre-trial stage allows each side to gather additional evidence from their adversary to reinforce their case. The onus is generally on the plaintiff to provide enough evidence to substantiate the validity of their case.
The case then proceeds to trial, which is overseen by a judge and, possibly, a jury. The jury’s role is to deliver a verdict based on the evidence put forward, while the judge ensures the appropriate application of the law. Previous court rulings, known as legal precedents, might also influence the court’s decisions.
It’s worth noting that not all cases reach a full trial. Quite often, the plaintiff and defendant arrive at a settlement, resolving the case before a final verdict. In case the parties can’t settle or they disagree with the trial result, an appeal can be lodged with a superior court to review the judgment of the lower court.
