Is pre-settlement funding a loan?

No, it is not a loan. We use the phrase “lawsuit loan” on our website because people often use this phrase to search for what we offer – cash advances against pending lawsuit settlements.

In reality, pre-settlement funding is not a loan because repayment is not required if you lose your case. Instead, we are buying a portion of your potential future lawsuit settlement from you. So, you get cash immediately, and if you win your case, we get an agreed-upon portion of that settlement money.

How much do settlement loans cost?

In other words, how do interest rates work for pre-settlement funding? Generally, lawsuit funding has higher interest rates than traditional loans because the lender (us) is risking not being paid back anything if the lawsuit fails.

However, at Nova Legal Funding we’ve designed our entire business to ensure that we’re able to offer the lowest rates in the industry. How do we do this?

How we offer the lowest rates in the industry:

  • We are selective. We only fund people with strong cases which means we don’t have to hedge our risk by charging inflated interest rates.
  • We have a low overhead. Unlike some of our big-name competitors, we’ve intentionally kept our operations small and streamlined. Our clients are the direct beneficiaries of this efficiency in the form of the lowest rates in the industry.
  • We don’t charge processing and application fees. Many of our top competitors charge high fees simply for processing your application. We don’t.
  • We don’t charge compounded interest. Instead, we have a fixed fee every six months, with a cap between 24 and 36 months (depending on the specifics of the case). 
  • The fee we charge is based entirely on the strength of your case. The stronger your case, the lower the fee you will pay. 
  • We guarantee to beat any competing offer. If we approve your case for funding, but you are offered a lower rate by one of our competitors, we’ll beat it, plain and simple.
