Submit a Funding Request
Provide basic information about the wrongful death claim, your attorney, and your funding request.
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.
Pre-Settlement Legal Funding
Alliance Litigation Funding provides non-recourse pre-settlement funding for eligible attorney-represented wrongful death claims. If your family is waiting for a lawsuit or settlement to resolve, funding may help provide access to cash for essential expenses while the case moves forward.
Understand the Service
Wrongful death lawsuit funding is a form of pre-settlement legal funding that may provide eligible plaintiffs, beneficiaries, or estate representatives with access to funds before a wrongful death claim reaches a settlement or other recovery. Unlike a traditional personal loan, approval is generally focused primarily on the legal claim and its potential recovery rather than conventional consumer lending criteria.
Alliance reviews eligible attorney-represented wrongful death claims and coordinates with counsel to evaluate case information. If funding is approved, the applicant receives funds according to the terms of the funding agreement while the underlying case continues.
People often search for terms such as wrongful death lawsuit loans, settlement loans, or a wrongful death lawsuit cash advance. Alliance provides pre-settlement legal funding rather than a traditional personal loan.

Know the Difference
Searchers often use terms such as wrongful death lawsuit loan or wrongful death settlement loan. Pre-settlement funding is structured differently from an ordinary consumer loan.
| Wrongful Death Pre-Settlement Funding | Traditional Personal Loan |
|---|---|
| Eligibility focuses primarily on the legal claim and potential recovery. | Approval often depends heavily on credit profile, income, and ability to repay. |
| Funding is connected to a pending legal claim. | The debt exists independently of a lawsuit or settlement. |
| Traditional monthly installment payments are generally not required while the case is pending. | Regular monthly payments are typically required. |
| Attorney involvement is generally necessary for review and repayment coordination. | An attorney is typically unrelated to the borrowing process. |
Funding structures, obligations, fees, and availability vary by agreement and jurisdiction. Always review the specific funding agreement before accepting funds.
Frequently Asked Questions
These answers address common questions about eligibility, funding structure, attorney involvement, timing, and how wrongful death pre-settlement funding works.
Wrongful death lawsuit funding is pre-settlement legal funding that may provide eligible plaintiffs or beneficiaries with access to funds before the underlying claim is resolved. Approval is generally based primarily on the legal claim, potential recovery, and underwriting review rather than being structured like a traditional personal loan.
You may be eligible if you have a pending wrongful death claim, are represented by an attorney, and the case meets Alliance's funding and jurisdictional requirements. The facts of each case are reviewed individually.
Attorney representation is generally required because Alliance must review case information and coordinate with counsel as part of the underwriting and repayment process.
The amount that may be available depends on factors such as the estimated value of the claim, liability, insurance coverage, case status, existing liens or funding, and other underwriting considerations. There is no single funding amount that applies to every wrongful death case.
Timing depends on how quickly the necessary case information can be obtained and reviewed. Complete applicant information and prompt attorney cooperation can help the review process move efficiently.
