What is a Settlement?

A settlement is an out-of-court agreement that is reached between the parties. The agreement is usually binding, meaning that a plaintiff relinquishes all potential claims against the other party once signed.

The vast majority of personal injury cases settle prior to going to trial, but obtaining a fair settlement can still take a long time. When deciding whether to accept a settlement or take a case to trial, an attorney looks at what will produce the most favorable outcome for their client and what is in their client’s best interest.

There are pros and cons to going to trial and to accepting a settlement. It depends on the facts of your case and your individual circumstances.

Things to consider about accepting a settlement or going to trial:

• Going to trial usually takes longer than taking a settlement but may result in a larger sum of money. 
• Insurance companies and liable parties generally settle to avoid further litigation, control the outcome of the case, and avoid unfavorable publicity.
• Prior to trial, you may accept or reject any settlement offers, but once a judge or jury renders a verdict, your only option may be an appeal. 
• If you accept a settlement, your case will not go to trial, and you cannot come back and ask for additional compensation.
• A settlement is guaranteed compensation, but a jury may be more inclined to award non-economic damages for things like pain and suffering at trial.

While you should always take into consideration the strength of your case and your personal circumstances when deciding whether to go to trial, you should not be forced into a lower settlement because of financial hardship. 

Pre-settlement legal funding helps provide you with the money you need while waiting for a settlement or trial verdict. The money is non-recourse, meaning you pay nothing unless you win.
