Pre-settlement funding for workers' compensation plaintiffs.
On-the-job injuries and occupational disease claims. Available in select states. Excludes states with regulatory restrictions on third-party litigation funding in workers' compensation matters.
Workers' compensation funding is available in states where regulations permit third-party involvement in workers' comp proceedings. These cases typically involve on-the-job injuries, occupational diseases, and repetitive stress injuries. Because workers' compensation is a state-administered system with specific rules about recovery and attorney fees, underwriting involves additional consideration of the applicable state framework.
Not every claim is a fit for funding. The factors below are the ones our underwriting team weighs most heavily when evaluating this case type. Meeting them does not guarantee approval, but it indicates a claim well-suited for a pre-settlement advance.
Workers' compensation underwriting begins with confirming that your state permits third-party funding of these matters, since some states restrict it. We then evaluate the claim status, the injury documentation, and the applicable state framework for benefits and settlement. Where a separate third-party personal injury claim exists alongside the comp claim, we evaluate that claim independently. Expected recovery is modeled against the state-specific settlement structure.
Workers' compensation matters vary widely by state, commonly resolving within 12 to 36 months depending on the dispute and the path to settlement.
