How Attorney Funding Can Benefit You 

Partnering with Best Call Funding allows you to litigate a case without financial hardship. You no longer have to worry about the outrageous costs of discovery or how you are going to pay for expert witnesses.

Attorneys that accept cases on a contingency fee basis are generally put at a financial disadvantage compared to the defense. They often go up against insurance companies and industry giants with deep pockets. Some defendants even prolong litigation knowing that the plaintiff’s attorney cannot afford the financial strain of the lawsuit.

We Absorb the Risk

When an attorney is working on a contingency basis, that usually means that they are using their own money or the law firm’s money to cover costs related to litigation. The problem is that there are never any guarantees that the case is going to be successful. If the attorney loses, they end up with nothing.

With Best Call Funding, we take on that risk. It is our money, not the attorneys, that is on the line. If the attorney loses the case, they pay nothing.

Time Is of the Essence

Litigation is not only expensive; it takes time. Today, cases can take 2 to 10 years to settle or obtain a verdict. Discovery and pretrial processes alone can take years to resolve. Mass tort and medical malpractice cases often take the longest and require the most money.

Attorney funding with Best Call provides you with almost instant cash for discovery, expert opinions, and more.

Steady Cash Flow

Every firm, regardless of size, requires steady cash flow to keep the lights on and the doors open. It can hurt your business if you have to rely on one case to settle in order to take on new cases.

Too many times, lawyers will delay the start of other cases because they don’t have the funds to work the case properly. Attorney funding changes that, giving you the money you need to stay operating.

Types of Attorney Funding

We have several different funding options for attorneys. To qualify for legal funding, there must be ongoing litigation with a plaintiff and attorney, or a case must have been recently settled.

At Best Call Funding, we provide attorneys with:

• Working capital lines - Working capital lines give attorneys and law firms a steady cash flow. Funding can be used for administrative, marketing, and employment costs.
  
  
• Settled case funding - Settled case funding allows attorneys to receive cash immediately for cases that are settled or have been awarded a verdict, but the proceeds have not yet been received. Best Call Funding purchases a portion of the attorney(s) fees at a discount to the full value of the fee.
  
  
• Pending case funding - Pending case funding provides attorneys with financing for their anticipated attorney fees on pending contingent fee case(s). At Best Call Funding, we understand that cases take time. This type of funding allows attorneys to withstand lengthy litigation and still have enough capital to acquire new cases.
