Pre-settlement funding for wrongful termination plaintiffs.
Unlawful dismissal, whistleblower retaliation, FMLA violations, and breach of employment contract. Non-recourse advances for wrongful termination plaintiffs.
Wrongful termination claims arise when an employer terminates an employee in violation of law or public policy. Common theories include: termination in retaliation for whistleblowing or protected complaints, violation of FMLA leave protections, discrimination-based termination under federal or state law, breach of express or implied employment contract, and termination violating public policy (for example, refusing to perform an illegal act). Recovery typically includes lost wages, benefits, and compensatory damages.
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.
Wrongful termination underwriting evaluates the strength of the unlawful-termination theory and the lost-wages calculation, which is anchored by your pre-termination salary and the duration of unemployment or underemployment since. We assess whether the matter is in court or arbitration — both are fundable — and model expected recovery against comparable termination outcomes. Stronger liability and longer documented wage loss support larger advances.
Wrongful termination claims generally resolve within 12 to 30 months, whether litigated in court or through mandatory arbitration.
