Who We Are

About Alliance Litigation Funding

Alliance Litigation Funding LLC is a pre-settlement funding company serving eligible attorney-represented plaintiffs. People also search for this service using terms such as lawsuit funding, legal funding, settlement funding, lawsuit loans, or a lawsuit cash advance. Consumer legal funding is not a traditional personal loan, and repayment obligations depend on the claim outcome and the conditions stated in the written agreement.

Our role is to review funding requests—not to provide legal advice, direct litigation strategy, or influence settlement decisions. We coordinate with the applicant's attorney to verify information needed for a case-specific review, then explain available funding terms before an approved applicant decides whether to proceed.

With the applicant's authorization, Alliance works with the representing law firm to verify information needed for review.

How to Compare Pre-Settlement Funding Companies

The best legal funding company for a particular applicant is one whose eligibility requirements, service standards, disclosures, and written terms fit the applicant's case and needs.

  • Confirm whether the funding is non-recourse and review the exact agreement conditions.
  • Ask how charges are calculated and whether they increase over time.
  • Request an example showing how the potential payoff may change.
  • Review cancellation rights, disclosures, and attorney-coordination requirements.
  • Verify the company currently reviews claims connected to your state.
  • Choose a provider that explains terms without pressuring you to settle or accept funding.

Funding Questions, Answered

Frequently Asked Questions About Choosing a Funding Company

Direct answers to common questions about pre-settlement funding companies, eligibility, attorney involvement, costs, and written terms.

What is a pre-settlement funding company?

A pre-settlement funding company reviews requests from eligible plaintiffs who have active legal claims and attorney representation. When an application is approved, the company provides funding under a written agreement tied to the potential recovery from the claim rather than offering a traditional personal loan.

Is pre-settlement funding a traditional loan?

No. Consumer legal funding is generally structured as non-recourse funding rather than a traditional personal loan. Repayment obligations depend on the claim outcome and the specific conditions in the written agreement. Applicants should review the complete agreement with their attorney before accepting funding.

How does Alliance review a funding application?

Alliance first reviews basic eligibility, including the claim status, attorney representation, case type, state connection, and requested amount. With the applicant's authorization, Alliance then coordinates with the representing attorney to verify case information and determine whether funding options may be available.

Does Alliance require a credit check?

Alliance does not use a traditional consumer credit check as the primary basis for eligibility. Review focuses mainly on the active legal claim, attorney verification, documentation, potential recovery, existing funding, state availability, and other case-specific factors.

Why does my attorney need to be involved?

Your attorney helps verify the claim, provides relevant documentation, confirms case status, and coordinates repayment from case proceeds when required by the written agreement. Alliance cannot complete a full funding review for an applicant who is not represented by an attorney for the submitted claim.

How do I compare pre-settlement funding companies?

Compare the written terms, payoff calculation, fee structure, cancellation provisions, state availability, attorney-coordination process, privacy practices, and customer support. Avoid choosing solely on advertising claims. Read the complete agreement and ask questions before accepting any funding offer.

How much does pre-settlement funding cost?

The cost varies by provider, claim, amount, expected duration, jurisdiction, and written agreement. Applicants should ask how charges are calculated, whether they increase over time, and what the potential payoff could be at different dates. The controlling terms are those in the signed agreement.

What happens if my case is unsuccessful?

Pre-settlement funding is generally non-recourse, meaning repayment depends on the case outcome and the agreement's conditions. The exact result can depend on the facts of the claim and the written contract. Review this provision carefully with your attorney before signing.

Are qualifications different from state to state?

Yes. Legal funding availability and requirements may vary based on the state connected to the claim, case type, documentation, current law, and Alliance's review criteria. Inclusion of a state on the website does not guarantee that a particular claim will qualify.

How quickly can a funding request be reviewed?

Review time depends on whether the application is complete and how quickly the law firm provides the requested case information. Case complexity, documentation, state requirements, existing funding, and underwriting questions can also affect timing. No specific approval or funding time is guaranteed.

Can I apply if I already received legal funding?

You may submit an application, but additional funding is not guaranteed. Alliance must review the existing funding balance, current case status, potential recovery, attorney information, requested amount, and other relevant factors before determining whether another advance may be available.

Does Alliance Litigation Funding provide legal advice?

No. Alliance Litigation Funding is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice, evaluate legal strategy, or direct settlement decisions. Questions about your rights, claim, settlement, or legal representation should be discussed with your attorney.
