A wrong decision - texting or talking on a cell phone, driving under the influence, speeding, ignoring traffic signs - behind the wheel can change the lives of many in a split second. Those seriously injured or who lost a loved one will be affected long after the accident. The at-fault driver should be held liable, which is why victims should consult with an experienced attorney. Once a lawsuit is filed, those in need of immediate cash during this difficult time may wish to consider pre-settlement funding.
When her husband was killed in an auto accident last November, Stephanie Nixon’s life dramatically changed. Her husband of 24 years, and father of her three children, died on his way to work when a tractor trailer crossed in front of his vehicle on I-75 in Detroit, Michigan.
“My life was turned upside down when my husband was killed. First, was the emotional devastation, but quickly I realized the financial implications as well. My husband was our sole breadwinner. I didn’t know what I was going to do to pay the funeral and burial expenses, let alone the monthly household bills and all the needs of our children. As I attempted to come to terms with our loss as just an accident and somehow I needed to move on, a friend suggested I contact a wrongful death attorney. I am glad I did because the investigation proved that the driver of the tractor trailer was texting at the time he hit my husband. Then, another blow came to my family. First, the insurance company denied my claim. Then, it was delayed for months. I needed money, but my parents were unable to help. My attorney suggested I apply for pre-settlement funding.”
Mrs. Nixon’s situation is similar to many pre-settlement funding clients. When a wrongful death case involves the loss of a wage earner, an attorney will investigate the causes of a fatal accident and work diligently to receive compensation for the lost earnings, as well as loss of consortium and pain and suffering. While the attorney acts immediately to preserve evidence, interview witnesses, and determine what happened and why, a pre-settlement funding company will act quickly to provide a non-recourse cash advance against a pending case to help a plaintiff financially during this difficult time.
Our legal funding experts were able to review Mrs. Nixon’s case and deliver a check in the amount of $5,000 directly to her checking account the very next day. Our pre-settlement funding services protected Mrs. Nixon from compromising her case due to financial pressures.
If you have lost a loved one in an auto accident, don’t suffer financially due to another driver’s negligence. Contact a legal funding expert and see how pre-settlement funding can help.
