Consumer legal funding is not considered a traditional loan because repayment is only required if your case is successful. Although it's often incorrectly called a "loan" or "lawsuit loan" - especially after an accident - with our lawsuit or legal funding, you do not have to pay back if you lose your case. The terminology "loan" is widley used for convenience. For ease of understanding, we will use the term "loan" throughout the website.

Case-by-case review

Don’t See Your Case Type Listed?

Lawsuits and injury claims do not always fit a standard category. If you have an active or pending claim and an attorney already represents you, submit your information so Alliance can determine whether your case may proceed to an individual funding review.

Basic eligibility

Requirements for Pre-Settlement Funding Review

The strongest applications generally have an active claim, attorney representation, case documentation, a potential recovery source, and a requested amount appropriate for the expected net recovery.

Your Case May Be Reviewed When

The lawsuit or insurance claim is active or pending.
You already have an attorney for the submitted claim.
Your attorney can provide the information needed for review.
The claim involves a potentially responsible party or recovery source.
The case type and connected state are currently eligible.
The requested amount fits the potential net recovery.

Funding May Not Be Available When

You do not yet have an attorney.
The legal claim is closed, hypothetical, or fully resolved.
Required case information cannot be verified.
There is no identifiable potential recovery source.
The case type or state is outside current review criteria.
Existing obligations leave insufficient potential net recovery.

Funding availability depends on the state connected to the claim and can change. Review the current state availability information before applying. State availability alone does not guarantee approval.

Funding explained

Funding While Your Lawsuit Is Pending

Pre-settlement funding is a case-based cash advance that may be available to eligible plaintiffs before a lawsuit or insurance claim resolves. Many consumers also search for this service as legal funding, settlement funding, lawsuit loans, settlement loans, or a lawsuit cash advance.

It is not a traditional personal loan. Eligibility is primarily connected to the legal claim, attorney verification, documentation, potential recovery, requested amount, state availability, and underwriting review. The signed agreement controls all repayment rights, costs, and obligations.

No Traditional Credit Decision

The legal claim and potential recovery are more important than a conventional consumer-credit profile.

No Scheduled Monthly Payments

Repayment is generally handled from a successful recovery under the signed non-recourse agreement.

Attorney Remains in Control

Alliance does not direct legal strategy. Your attorney continues to manage and advise you about your claim.

Terms Before Acceptance

Approved applicants should review the complete written agreement and ask questions before accepting funding.

Funding Questions Answered

Frequently Asked Questions About Lawsuit Funding Eligibility

Get direct answers about eligible lawsuit types, attorney requirements, application reviews, credit checks, state availability, funding amounts, and non-recourse pre-settlement funding.

What types of lawsuits may qualify for pre-settlement funding?

Eligible claims may include auto, truck, motorcycle, pedestrian, slip-and-fall, medical malpractice, product liability, surgery-related, dog bite, workplace injury, wrongful death, and other qualifying personal-injury or civil claims. Eligibility depends on the individual case, attorney verification, documentation, potential recovery, and state availability.

Can I apply if my case type is not listed?

Potentially. If you have an active or pending legal claim and an attorney already represents you, you may submit an application using the closest available case category or “Other.” Alliance can then determine whether the claim meets current case-type and state requirements.

Do I need an attorney to qualify for lawsuit funding?

Yes. Alliance reviews attorney-represented claims because the funding evaluation requires verified information about the case status, liability, damages, documentation, potential recovery, liens, and other case obligations.

Can I get funding while my lawsuit is still pending?

Yes. Pre-settlement funding is designed for eligible claims that have not yet resolved. An active or pending claim may be reviewed when the applicant is represented by an attorney and sufficient case information is available for evaluation.

Does applying for lawsuit funding require a credit check?

Alliance generally does not use a traditional consumer-credit check to determine case eligibility. The review focuses primarily on the legal claim, attorney verification, documentation, liability, damages, potential recovery, requested amount, and state availability.

How is a lawsuit funding application reviewed?

Alliance first reviews the application for basic eligibility and then coordinates with the attorney or law firm to verify case information. The evaluation may consider liability, damages, available recovery sources, documentation, liens, prior funding, expected net recovery, requested amount, and state requirements.

How much pre-settlement funding can I request?

You may state the amount you are seeking, but the requested amount does not guarantee approval or a particular offer. Available funding depends on factors such as case value, expected net recovery, liability, damages, documentation, existing obligations, attorney information, and underwriting review.

Does funding availability depend on my state?

Yes. Legal funding availability can vary based on the state or jurisdiction connected to the claim, the case type, agreement structure, and current requirements. State availability is reviewed as part of the application process.

What happens if my case does not produce a recovery?

Under a non-recourse funding agreement, repayment is generally contingent on a successful case recovery. If there is no recovery, repayment is generally not required, subject to the specific signed agreement and applicable law.

Is Alliance Litigation Funding a law firm or personal loan company?

No. Alliance Litigation Funding is not a law firm, does not provide legal advice, and does not provide traditional personal loans. Alliance reviews eligible legal claims for pre-settlement funding subject to case review, attorney verification, state availability, and written agreement terms.
