Hurt in a Slip & Fall Accident?

Slip & Fall Pre-Settlement Funding

Slip-and-fall accidents cause as many as 25,000 injuries each day in the United States, according to the Occupational Health and Safety Administration. Falls are the most often-cited reason for lost days of work across most industries, and half of all deaths that occur at home result from falls. If you have experienced a slip-and-fall injury, you may be awaiting the long process of receiving a settlement offer or having a legal claim against the responsible party adjudicated in court. These claims can be time-intensive and complicated. While you wait for your payout, slip-and-fall pre-settlement funding can help ease financial burdens caused by your injury.

Slip-and-Fall Pre-Settlement Funding

Many slip-and-fall injuries occur when businesses and organizations fail to keep their parking lots and walkways clear from debris, ice, and other hazards, leading to consumers getting hurt on the premises. Oversight on their part leads to back, spine, neck, hip, and extremity injuries, some of them severe. A hard enough fall can cause a horrific amount of harm to the body, and injuries to the head can leave you with brain damage. Settling your claim early just to get it resolved and recoup lost money from your inability to work does not do justice to your finances. With slip-and-fall pre-settlement funding, you can access an advance against your pending settlement, making it easier to meet day-to-day expenses until your case is setttled or you win at court.

Getting Started with Slip-and-Fall Pre-Settlment Funding

Anyone with a legitimate slip-and-fall claim can apply for pre-settlement funding. With just a simple application and your attorney's contact information, you can begin the review process to determine your eligibility. If you are approved, you can receive a percentage of your anticipated lawsuit award almost immediately. This non-recourse advance is repaid only if and when your case settles or you win at court.                   

Advance Limits on Slip-and-Fall Pre-Settlement Funding

The limits of your slip-and-fall settlement funding advance are based on the overall worth of your case. The case itself is decided based on several factors, including the liability of the insured, your pain and suffering, time lost from work, diminished capacity to earn a living, and medical costs associated with your claim. The degree of permanency and the seriousness of your injuries is also considered. 

A slip-and-fall accident can leave you with serious injuries, and insurance companies are slow to act when it comes to settling up with litigants in cases like these. Contact Buckeye Legal Funding today about slip-and-fall pre-settlement funding to make your wait less stressful.
