We provide quick and easy pre-settlement funding in Wyoming to plaintiffs who are waiting for a legal settlement. We know unwanted personal injury legal cases put pressure on people financially before a settlement is reached. Plaintiffs struggle to pay bills because they can’t work. Further, these front-case costs with no guarantee of getting paid. That’s why we offer pre-settlement funding – to provide money to cover costs so you can focus on getting the best settlement and not worry about finances.
Our simple application process makes it easy to get pre-settlement funding quickly. Our team has years of experience evaluating cases to ensure we only provide funding we feel has a strong chance of repaying at settlement. We offer personalized service and customized funding options to meet your specific needs.
What is Pre-Settlement Funding?
Pre-settlement funding provides money to plaintiffs with pending lawsuits before their case settles. It is an advance or loan that is repaid out of the proceeds from a settlement.
Here’s how it works:
- We assess your personal injury, workers compensation, or other legal case. If approved, we provide a lump sum of money to you based on the potential value of your case.
- You use the funds to cover expenses related to the case, bills, or any other needs you have during the waiting period before settlement.
- Once your case settles, you repay the money advanced plus fees out of your portion of the settlement funds.
The key benefits of pre-settlement funding include:
- Paying bills so financial pressure doesn’t force an unfair early settlement
- Covering costs related to your case like medical treatments and expenses
- Avoiding having to accept loans from family/friends or high interest credit cards
- Being able to wait for a full and fair settlement offer

Eligibility for Pre-Settlement Funding in Wyoming
To qualify for pre-settlement funding in Wyoming, plaintiffs must:
- Be actively involved in a personal injury, workers comp, or other legal case with an attorney
- Have a case that has a high chance of settling
- Have sufficient settlement value to cover the advance, fees, and attorney’s fees/expenses
- Be willing to sign an agreement to repay from settlement proceeds
- Provide documentation to show eligibility and case standing
Here are some of the key criteria we look at when evaluating a case for funding eligibility:
- Liability – Is the other party clearly at fault based on evidence and circumstances?
- Injuries – Are they severe enough to warrant a significant settlement value?
- Defendants – Do they have insurance/assets to pay a settlement?
- Timeline – How far along is the case? Is there a trial date set?
- Attorney reputation – Do they have a good record of maximizing settlement values?
While every case is different, these factors help us determine if a case has a strong chance of repayment once settled. We are very selective and decline funding for cases we feel are too weak.
