The pre-settlement legal funding industry is often viewed in a negative manner by those outside of the industry, because settlement advances charge higher interest rates than traditional lending methods. The truth is, that without pre-settlement legal funding, those personally injured in accidents that were no fault of their own often do not have the financial means to properly care for themselves following a personal injury accident. Therefore, pre-settlement legal funding plays a vital role by providing much-needed financial assistance for personal injury victims when they have no other options available to them.
