EUGENE, Ore., April 29, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — TriMark Legal Funding LLC, one of the nation’s leading pre-settlement funding companies since 2003, announced today that, due to overwhelming popularity, it has extended its financial relief initiative originally launched on March 24th to provide $3,500 in immediate cash assistance to people nationwide who are currently involved in civil lawsuits and have been negatively impacted by Coronavirus/COVID-19. No ending date has been set.

Plaintiffs nationwide are strongly encouraged to apply for risk-free pre-settlement funding from TriMark to take advantage of this truly unprecedented, automatic-approval initiative.

Tens of millions of Americans have involuntarily become unemployed due to mandatory stay-at-home quarantines and millions of business closures. TriMark Legal Funding is committed to helping every eligible person by providing $3,500 automatic-approval pre-settlement loans. There are no credit checks, no employment requirements, and no out-of-pocket expenses and lawsuit funding approval is based on the merits of an underlying lawsuit.

This offer is available nationwide to plaintiffs in civil lawsuits who need cash now, before their cases settle.

To apply right now, please visit https://tlfllc.com/coronavirus-pre-settlement-funding or call (877) 932-2628 and one of our friendly representatives will be happy to assist you. Due to much heavier than normal call volume, the fastest way to receive immediate approval is to apply online.

How Coronavirus Lawsuit Loans Work

Plaintiffs with qualifying cases* and no prior funding can apply for an immediate $3,500 no-documentation, automatic-approval lawsuit cash advance. Existing clients and anyone with prior settlement loans from any other company are ineligible for this offer. TriMark has eliminated its documentation requirements and has also waived its normal underwriting fees.

Here is what TriMark needs:

1). Completed application
2). Copy of plaintiff’s driver’s license or state-issued ID
3). A brief conversation with plaintiff’s attorney

Pre-settlement funding agreements are executed electronically via DocuSign and funds can be wired directly into a plaintiff’s checking account or sent FedEx Overnight in as little as 24 hours.

TriMark can provide non-recourse settlement funding from $500 up to hundreds of thousands of dollars, depending on an individual’s case and financial needs.

For requests over $3,500, accept the $3,500 first, then request additional funding. Documentation and case evaluation are required for additional funding requests, all requests over $3,500, and all requests requiring the buyout of prior advances.

T Thomas Colwell, CEO of TriMark Legal Funding commented, “Many plaintiffs involved in pending litigation were already struggling financially before the Coronavirus pandemic. Now, after nearly 6 weeks of mandatory quarantines and with no real end in sight yet, many of those same people are out of money, out of time, out of options, and they are scared. To make matters worse, months of court closures are going to cause an already lengthy legal process to take even longer. TriMark created this program to be a lifeline to plaintiffs who are in dire financial straits right now and need help immediately.”

TriMark Legal Funding can consider funding on most personal injury lawsuits including car, truck, motorcycle, drunk driving, and motor vehicle accidents and train, subway, and pedestrian accidents. Catastrophic injuries like crush injuries, burn injuries, spinal cord injuries, and traumatic brain injuries, medical malpractice, and wrongful death. Premises liability cases like dog bites, nursing home abuse, slip and fall accidents, and serious injuries on commercial property. Product liability includes cases like dangerous drugs and defective medical devices such as IVC filters, recalled hip replacements, and hernia mesh. Civil rights violations include police brutality, police misconduct, sexual abuse or assault, prison staff misconduct, and wrongful imprisonment. TriMark also considers employment lawsuits like discrimination, retaliation, whistleblower, wrongful termination, and sexual harassment in the workplace, plus work-related injuries like construction accidents, Jones Act maritime injuries, and FELA railroad workers injuries.

Disclaimer – TriMark Legal Funding offers non-recourse lawsuit cash advances. While commonly referred to as lawsuit loans, settlement loans, lawsuit settlement loans, etc., they are not technically loans. A non-recourse lawsuit cash advance requires no monthly payments and repayment is contingent upon a successful settlement or jury verdict. If the case is lost or does not settle, the plaintiff does not repay the advance.

*Residents of some states are ineligible for this offer due to state laws or internal funding restrictions. Please see https://tlfllc.com/coronavirus-pre-settlement-funding for restrictions and exclusions.

Australian Google Ad Tech Class Action Commenced on Behalf of Publishers

By Harry Moran |

A class action was filed on 16 December 2024 on behalf of QNews Pty Ltd and Sydney Times Media Pty Ltd against Google LLC, Google Pte Ltd and Google Australia Pty Ltd (Google). 

The class action has been commenced to recover compensation for Australian-domiciled website and app publishers who have suffered financial losses as a result of Google’s misuse of market power in the advertising technology sector. The alleged loss is that publishers would have had significantly higher revenues from selling advertising space, and would have kept greater profits, if not for Google’s misuse of market power. 

The class action is being prosecuted by Piper Alderman with funding from Woodsford, which means affected publishers will not pay costs to participate in this class action, nor will they have any financial risk in relation to Google’s costs. 

Anyone, or any business, who has owned a website or app and sold advertising space using Google’s ad tech tools can join the action as a group member by registering their details at www.googleadtechaction.com.au. Participation in the action as a group member will be confidential so Google will not become aware of the identity of group members. 

The class action is on behalf of all publishers who had websites or apps and sold advertising space using Google’s platforms targeted at Australian consumers, including: 

  1. Google Ad Manager (GAM);
  2. Doubleclick for Publishers (DFP);
  3. Google Ad Exchange (AdX); and
  4. Google AdSense or AdMob. 

for the period 16 December 2018 to 16 December 2024. 

Google’s conduct 

Google’s conduct in the ad tech market is under scrutiny in various jurisdictions around the world. In June 2021, the French competition authority concluded that Google had abused its dominant position in the ad tech market. Google did not contest the decision, accepted a fine of €220m and agreed to change its conduct. The UK Competition and Markets Authority, the European Commission, the US Department of Justice and the Canadian Competition Bureau have also commenced investigations into, or legal proceedings regarding, Google’s conduct in ad tech. There are also class actions being prosecuted against Google for its practices in the ad tech market in the UK, EU and Canada. 

In Australia, Google’s substantial market power and conduct has been the subject of regulatory investigation and scrutiny by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) which released its report in August 2021. The ACCC found that “Google is the largest supplier of ad tech services across the entire ad tech supply chain: no other provider has the scale or reach across the ad tech supply chain that Google does.” It concluded that “Google’s vertical integration and dominance across the ad tech supply chain, and in related services, have allowed it to engage in leveraging and self-preferencing conduct, which has likely interfered with the competitive process". 

Quotes 

Greg Whyte, a partner at Piper Alderman, said: 

“This class action is of major importance to publishers, who have suffered as a result of Google’s practices in the ad tech monopoly that it has secured. As is the case in several other 2. jurisdictions around the world, Google will be required to respond to and defend its monopolistic practices which significantly affect competition in the Australian publishing market”. 

Charlie Morris, Chief Investment Officer at Woodsford said: “This class action follows numerous other class actions against Google in other jurisdictions regarding its infringement of competition laws in relation to AdTech. This action aims to hold Google to account for its misuse of market power and compensate website and app publishers for the consequences of Google’s misconduct. Working closely with economists, we have determined that Australian website and app publishers have been earning significantly less revenue and profits from advertising than they should have. We aim to right this wrong.”

By Harry Moran |

Top litigation finance firm Nera Capital is ending the year on a high with the announcement of yet another successfully closed funding deal, this time securing $25 million to bolster UK consumer protection claims.

The funding, secured through a US-based investment partner, reflects yet another significant milestone for the firm as it continues to build momentum and strengthen its foothold in the market. 

This recently closed funding deal builds on a prosperous year of growth for Nera Capital, further demonstrating its capabilities across the globe. The investment will be directed towards advancing claims that protect UK consumers, enabling greater access to justice for individuals seeking redress.

With offices in Dublin, Manchester, and Amsterdam, Nera Capital has consistently demonstrated its commitment to driving innovation and impact in litigation finance worldwide. This latest funding announcement underscores Nera Capital’s ability to forge strategic international partnerships that deliver meaningful results. 

In 2024, Nera have hit record numbers of settlements, deployment and company profitability but also grown major portfolio positions in Europe and the USA.

Aisling Byrne, Director at Nera Capital, commented on the announcement: “We are happy to have closed yet another significant funding deal, further cementing our position as a leading force in consumer protection litigation. We anticipate this initial facility figure will increase as our partnership strengthens and thrives over time.

She added: “This is not just about financial growth; it’s about expanding our ability to make a difference. With this funding, we are reinforcing our commitment to fairness and justice, empowering consumers, and holding organisations accountable.”

The announcement follows the recent launch of Nera Capital’s £250,000 Access to Justice Fund, aimed at providing legal and financial support to those who may otherwise face barriers to justice.

The firm’s efforts come at a time of heightened focus on consumer rights across the world, driven by evolving legal frameworks, increased attention to data privacy, and growing concerns about sustainability and corporate accountability.

“As we look to 2025, we remain committed to leveraging our resources and expertise to protect consumers and advocate for justice on both sides of the Atlantic.“
