How Medical Devices Cause Injury

Posted on

Medical devices can be defective or poorly designed leaving them to cause harm and bodily injury to the recipient of the device. A very common medical device that has been found to cause such injuries is a transvaginal mesh implant. Such implants seek to remedy conditions like stress urinary incontinence or a prolapsed pelvic organ. However, transvaginal mesh implants have been recently discovered to cause a host of other issues and complications such as erosion, scarring, damage to the nerve and organ perforation. Such devices are considered to be high risk for this exact reason.

While seeking to cure one problem, these implants create many more due to their poor design. The consequences are life-threatening. Transvaginal mesh implants are just one of the types of defective implants and products used in medical practice. Hip implants pose a similar concern and create a problem for users of those devices as well.

If you or a loved one used a medical device implant and were harmed, and have an ongoing legal claim or case against the manufacturer, you may be entitled to cash funding for your lawsuit.

Injuries Caused by Car Accidents

Posted on

In car accidents, both drivers and passengers can be heavily impacted. Because of the weight of the vehicles themselves and the force of impact, depending on the type of car crash and how it occurred, the injuries individuals sustain can be life-threatening and debilitating.

In car accidents with big trucks and rigs, car flips may occur, fires may start and as a result bones can break and burn injuries may occur. In an automobile accident with a motorcyclist who can potentially be thrown off his or her vehicle, the injuries can be even more severe without the extra layer of protection from a windshield that a car may provide. Pedestrians are even less safe when they are in contact with a moving vehicle, motorcycle or truck. If a pedestrian is hit by a bus or car or any other vehicle, they are typically thrown into the air or run over. Those injuries can be devastating and permanent. Unfortunately, such accidents are not rare but are a common occurrence.

At High Rise Financial, we seek to offer assistance to injured victims of car and other vehicular accidents to allow such victims to obtain the necessary medical treatment to survive and recover. Many times the injuries are so severe that they cannot fully recover to their condition pre-accident. If you or a loved one was injured in a car accident and have an ongoing legal case against the other party, you may qualify for cash for your lawsuit. Contact High Rise Financial to learn more.

Prevalent Personal Injury Accidents

Posted on

What exactly is a personal injury accident? What qualifies legally and what are the cases personal injury lawyers and legal funding companies like High Rise Financial typically deal with? There is a broad spectrum of cases that qualify under the law and are categorically considered to be a personal injury claim.

Premises liability claims also known as slip and fall accidents are under the umbrella of personal injury. An injured victim who falls due to a dangerous condition on property that the owner of the property reasonably should have known about or knew about, whether public or private, as long as the person is not a trespasser can create clear liability. These cases often occur on faulty public sidewalks where potholes exist. They also occur in supermarkets and aisles where a slippery substance was left behind.

Medical malpractice claims involve an injured person who underwent a medical procedure but were injured directly as the result of the doctor’s negligence or failure to act reasonably according to industry standards. Usually in such cases, the plaintiff’s lawyer will hire a medical expert to testify regarding the “reasonable” standard.

Dog bite attacks are also considered personal injury accidents. A dangerous dog or one with the propensity to bite is taken into consideration during such claims. The dog owner is typically responsible if it is shown that the dog has attacked others previously and the dog owner was negligent in handling the dog, creating the environment for the victim to be attacked. Landlords can be held liable as well if the dog has been allowed to roam the premises freely, for example, without a leash, without consequence or condemnation.

Wrongful death cases, construction accidents, nursing home negligence and other cases also qualify as personal injury accidents.

How To Qualify for Lawsuit Funding

Posted on

The types of cases that allow plaintiffs to receive cash before their case or claim settles with the liable third-party include automobile accidents, personal injury incidents and injuries caused by defective or harmful medical devices.

Many scenarios, accidents and circumstances can qualify for the above. Certain factors are taken into consideration by High Rise Financial and our team of underwriters. When reviewing and evaluating your case, we will ask you if you are represented by an attorney or law firm. You must have a ongoing claim or case or be pursuing such a claim actively against the insurance company. We also review the facts of the accident and there is a liability analysis. For example, if a police report states that the other party is 100% at fault for the incident and you are 0% at fault, this will increase your chances of qualifying and receiving pre-settlement lawsuit funding.

Whether you were an insured driver at the time of the accident and whether the at-fault party has insurance are also taken into consideration. Overall, our team at High Rise Financial works directly with your attorney to obtain this information when making an assessment for legal funding for your case. Contact us today to find out whether your claim can get you the cash you urgently need.

Uber Accidents on the Rise

If you or a loved one, family member or friend were injured in an automobile accident with an Uber vehicle, your case may qualify for cash legal funding pre-settlement. If you were a passenger in an Uber driver’s vehicle and were injured or sustained damages and have an ongoing legal case or are pursuing a claim, you should consider cash funding for your lawsuit. Another scenario may involve you being a passenger or driver of the second vehicle and the Uber driver causing the accident as the driver of the first vehicle. Various scenarios may occur. The only requirement is that the evidence show that the other party is liable and caused the accident. In fact, many different auto accidents can occur and are not limited to auto vs. auto.

A car driven by an Uber driver can crash with a motorcyclist, pedestrian, truck driver and more. If you were injured in such an accident, you may be entitled to recovery for your pain and suffering and medical treatments. These are typically referred to by lawyers as general damages and special damages, respectively. Also, depending on the circumstances and the extent of your injuries, you may also have other potential claims for lost income or lost wages as well as loss of consortium if the accident so gravely affected you to affect your marriage or marital relations.

Sometimes referred to as a “lawsuit loan,” cash funding provided by High Rise Financial must only be repaid if your case is successful and there is a monetary settlement. This condition allows plaintiffs who are injured to benefit from the leverage their case holds against the liable defendant third-party. Click here to learn more about how legal funding for lawsuits work both before settlement and even after settlement but before you receive the cash from the defendant’s insurance company.

If the date of death is different from the date of the accident or underlying incident, then the time is calculated two years from the date of death.

According to the California Office of Traffic Safety, the statistics regarding automobile, motorcycle, pedestrian and bicycle accidents have risen. Specifically, drunk driving, unrestrained drivers and passengers, lack of safety, drug impaired driving have all increased in California in 2015 and 2016.

Personal injury cases can also involve non-automobile accidents such as slip and falls, medical malpractice, defective medical products and more. Contact High Rise Financial today to see if your case qualifies for lawsuit funding if you or a loved one was involved in a personal injury accident.
