SPONSORED POST: No Loan? No Problem. Law Firm Funding to the Rescue!

“The more money our clients invest in advertising, the bigger their firms get, and (consequently) they keep returning for more capital.”

– Joshua Collins, Chief Investment Officer of Attorney Capital Funding,
on why his company is currently experiencing such massive growth.

Since its inception in late 2005, Attorney Capital Funding (in conjunction with the Xpress Capital Group family of companies) has procured $160MM in financing for over 11,000 customers. The company generates opportunities for small and large law firms, as well as solo attorneys who can’t seek out traditional financing via a bank or credit union. Some have been declined by their banks, and others simply need a way to obtain financing without tapping their personal credit profile. We empower these attorneys by allowing them to collateralize their portfolios based on future valuation, instead of limiting them by their historical income.

In short, we care more about where you’re going than where you’ve been.

Question: “How is a bank better than you guys?”

Clearly, banks charge less than a family office, hedge fund or other private equity group would. So, I always tell attorneys that if they can get approved by their banks, ‘OF COURSE, don’t use us or any alternative finance vehicle.’

We do not and never will attempt to compete with banks. They are good at what they do. Banks offer a small percentage of applicants less funding than what they request; but it costs less to use a bank than alternative financing. However, if you can get approval for traditional financing, don’t use any of us in this space.

Question: “Who benefits the most from your funding?”

Most attorneys report that they can see $7 or $8 back for every dollar invested in advertising. Attorneys who understand advertising/marketing should take advantage of our funding solutions. So, even though our funding costs more than that of a bank, at the end of the day it’s worth it because a) attorneys are going to write off their cost, and b) attorneys are receiving back a multiple of what they are investing.

Also, an attorney who wants to expand his or her practice can benefit from investing in new staff members, or by opening a new location in order to handle more new business.

Question: “How are your funding solutions better than those of a bank?” 

Our intimate knowledge of the Legal Services industry allows us to base our client’s funding size on our future valuation of their portfolio, in contrast to banks that use past performance. Legal Services is an asymmetric industry – revenue is not realized consistently. So when attorneys need to raise funds, it can benefit them to leverage the future valuation of their pipeline of cases, which can be substantially larger than past performance.

We also allow attorneys to pledge some or all of their cases, so in the event they don’t prevail in a single matter, they have the assurance that they have multiple opportunities to make good on their commitments.

Question: “How does the process work, and how long does it take to get approved?”

The first step is to take 3-5 minutes and complete the Due Diligence Questionnaire (or “application”) at AttorneyCapitalFunding.com.

The 2nd step is to complete our NDA. After the NDA has been fully-executed, we hold a brief introductory call in order to get to know you and your firm better.

The final step is to go over any last-minute supporting documents before closing and initiating the wire transfer. After a client submits an application (Due Diligence Questionnaire, which takes 5-10 minutes to complete) and the NDA (which takes 1-3 minutes to complete), underwriting typically takes 3-4 business days. After approval, it takes just 1-2 business days to release the wire, dependent upon the time the law firm sends in their final, signed documents.

Legal Bay Presettlement Funding Offers Comprehensive Guideline for Funding Contracts to Avoid

By Harry Moran |

As the lawsuit funding industry continues to grow, Legal-Bay Lawsuit Settlement Funding is issuing a public advisory to plaintiffs navigating the complex and often underregulated pre-settlement loan landscape. The company urges consumers to remain vigilant against deceptive contract practices and highlights its own commitment to transparency, fairness, and ethical funding solutions.

While pre-settlement funding can offer critical financial relief during lengthy legal battles, Legal-Bay warns that not all funding companies operate ethically. In particular, the firm is cautioning plaintiffs to avoid contracts that include compounding pricing models, hidden fees, and vague language, common tactics used by unscrupulous funders.  Legal-Bay also offers refinancing's in event you have a large legal funding lien with a bad compounding rate and want cheaper pricing.

Chris Janish, CEO of Legal Bay, says, "Too often we see plaintiffs fall victim to exploitative funding agreements that leave them owing far more than they borrowed, especially after years of compounding costs buried in the fine print. Many of these contracts are intentionally confusing, designed to mislead consumers. At Legal-Bay, we offer refinancing options on large funding buyouts, by converting your existing compounding lien into a flat pricing lien – no different than a home mortgage refi."

If you are involved in any active litigation and would like to discuss how to get a cash advance from your anticipated lawsuit settlement, please visit the company's website HERE or call 877.571.0405 where agents are standing by to hear about your specific case.  

Legal-Bay outlines several red flags that plaintiffs should watch out for when considering a pre-settlement advance:

  • Compounding interest without clear repayment terms: Some funders fail to disclose how much a plaintiff will owe over time, resulting in balances that balloon dramatically after two or three years.
  • Vague or misleading contract language: Important terms are often hidden in fine print or presented in confusing legal jargon.
  • Discouraging attorney involvement: Ethical funders will encourage plaintiffs to review all funding agreements with their attorneys instead of trying to edge them out of the discussion.
  • Lack of disclosure about maximum repayment: Some contracts leave plaintiffs uncertain about how much will ultimately be deducted from their settlement.

In contrast, Legal-Bay's approach is rooted in transparency, fairness, and full attorney cooperation. All of their contracts are structured to include straightforward terms, capped repayment amounts, and no compounding interest. Plaintiffs and their attorneys are given full access to review and understand the terms before any funding is finalized.

Legal-Bay's dedication to ethical funding has made it a trusted name in loan on lawsuit funding for plaintiffs in personal injury, sexual abuse, motor vehicle accidents, medical malpractice, dog bite, commercial litigation, and many more.

Legal-Bay's lawsuit funding programs are designed to provide immediate cash in advance of a plaintiff's anticipated monetary award. While it's common to refer to these legal funding requests as loans on lawsuit or settlement loans, legal funding isn't like a loan at all. Because the funds are non-recourse, there's no risk since there is no obligation to repay the money if the recipient loses their case.

To apply right now for a loan settlement program, please visit the company's website HERE or call toll-free at: 877.571.0405 where agents are standing by to answer any questions.

Legal-Bay Launches INSTALL Funding: Monthly Financial Relief for Plaintiffs Awaiting Settlement

By Harry Moran |

Legal-Bay, a leading pre-settlement funding company, has introduced a game-changing financial solution for plaintiffs embroiled in active litigation. Their newly launched INSTALL funding contract offers clients the ability to receive structured monthly payments instead of a traditional one-time advance, easing the burden of everyday living expenses during the often lengthy legal process.

This innovative funding option addresses a growing need among plaintiffs who face significant financial strain while their cases are pending. With INSTALL funding, individuals can rely on predictable monthly disbursements designed to cover essential costs such as legal fees, medical bills, and everyday housing expenses, allowing them to focus on their case without the added pressure of missed bills or mounting debt.

Chris Janish, CEO of Legal-Bay, says, "Legal battles can be incredibly stressful, especially when they drag on for months or even years. We created INSTALL funding to provide ongoing financial stability for our customers when they need it the most, when they are stuck at home and can't work, but still need to have their bills paid on the first of the month."

INSTALL funding is one of Legal-Bay's most popular products, because lawyers know their clients cannot fight a case without cash flow coming in each month.

So, if you are a lawyer and have a client—or If you're a plaintiff yourself—in an existing lawsuit who needs an immediate INSTALL funding contract against an anticipated cash settlement award, you can apply HERE or call: 877.571.0405

Unlike standard bank loans which often involve large lump sums and steep repayment terms, INSTALL funding is tailored to meet real-life needs. Clients only draw what they require each month, which can significantly lower the total repayment after a case is settled. This targeted approach helps prevent excessive borrowing and encourages responsible financial planning throughout the litigation process.

By providing installation-based funding with client-friendly terms, Legal-Bay offers clear, flexible solutions to their customers' financial needs. The program is ideal for individuals involved in personal injury, slip and fall, medical malpractice, motor vehicle accident, Workers Comp. or 3rd party workers comp. claims or work injury claims, and many other types of cases.

Legal-Bay is one of the best legal funding companies in the industry, known for their helpful staff and quick turnaround. While sometimes pre-settlement funds are referred to as loans on lawsuit or lawsuit loans, there are no credit checks or collateral required for legal funding. The money is an immediate cash advance against a plaintiff's anticipated settlement award, not a conventional loan. The non-recourse lawsuit funding is risk-free, as the money doesn't need to be repaid should the recipient lose their case.
