Personal Injury Slip and Fall Loans

More than eight million people go to the emergency room each year due to slip and fall injuries, according to the National Floor Safety Institute (NFSI). This leads to many slip and fall injury victims filing lawsuits every day with no firm guarantee of prompt compensation.

Unfortunately, waiting for a claim to settle can be untimely. While waiting for your settlement, you can still cover all your financial obligations with a personal injury slip and fall loan. High Rise Financial provides slip and fall injury victims a way to get cash fast without putting themselves at any significant risk.

What Is a Slip and Fall Personal Injury Claim?

When someone suffers a slip and fall injury on someone else’s property, the property owner may be found liable for the victim’s injuries. If the property owner failed to uphold their duty of care in keeping their premises safe for their invited guests and patrons at all times, they can be ordered to compensate injury victims accordingly.

Generally, slip and fall personal injury victims can recover compensation by filing a claim with a property owner’s insurance company. In many cases, property owners are represented by homeowner’s insurance, renter’s insurance, general liability insurance, business insurance, or some other type of insurance policy.

However, if the slip and fall injury victim’s insurance settlement is not enough to cover their damages in full, or, if the liable party does not have insurance in place, filing a lawsuit against them may be the best way for injury victims to recover compensation for their suffering.

Common Causes of Slip and Fall Injuries

Slip and fall accidents can occur in a variety of scenarios. However, there are some causes of slip and fall injuries that are seen far more frequently in lawsuit loan applications than others. Some of the more common causes of slip and fall injuries include:

• Ladder and stair accidents
• Escalator and elevator accidents
• Wet floor accidents
• Snow and ice accidents
• Negligence security
• Improper maintenance
• Debris in the walkway
• Broken pavement
• Unsecure flooring or carpeting
• Parking lot potholes

If you were involved in another type of accident that caused slip and fall injuries, you could still be entitled to financial compensation. To find out how to access the benefits and compensation that are rightfully yours before your slip and fall claim has been officially resolved, be sure to contact your slip and fall injury lawyer or our loan specialists to discuss the circumstances of your case in greater detail.

How Much Could Your Slip and Fall Personal Injury Claim Be Worth?

Your slip and fall personal injury claim value will determine how much our loan specialists can approve your pre-settlement funding for. To determine how much your case is worth, your lawyer will carefully evaluate your damages to calculate the value of your claim.

Some of the more common types of losses you could recoup as part of personal injury insurance or civil claim include:

• Pain and suffering
• Lost wages
• Loss of potential future earnings
• Medical expenses (both current and future)
• Loss of household services
• Emotional distress
• Diminished quality of life
• Loss of companionship and love
• Reputational damages
• Inconvenience

Shared Fault Laws Could Impact Your Compensation

It should be noted that sharing liability for your slip and fall injuries could have an impact on the amount of compensation you could be awarded in your personal injury claim and lawsuit loans. Depending on the state you live in, if you share liability for your injuries, you may be barred from recovery and compensation in a civil claim.

However, that does not mean you could not be entitled to compensation through an insurance settlement. In many states, sharing liability will not prohibit you from recovering compensation for your damages. Instead, your injury settlement will be reduced to account for your portion of fault. 

However, if you do share liability for your injuries, your attorney and our loan specialists will determine how your injury settlement will be affected and how much we can provide you in legal funding based on the facts of your case.

Slip and Fall Injury Lawsuits Can Take a Long Time to Settle

Your lawsuit may take more time than you think to conclude. Consider the timeline of the average slip and fall injury lawsuit. You have to:

• Get medical treatment and complete it as much as you can
• Consult with a lawyer about your case – learn more about what cases qualify for pre-settlement funding
• Gather evidence, police reports, medical records, etc
• Fill out the paperwork correctly and in accordance with any deadlines
• Negotiate with the insurance company or go to trial to resolve your lawsuit

This can take many months to complete, even before you begin negotiations. Should you have to resolve your lawsuit in court, it could take even longer. Hundreds of cases often bog courts down daily, and there is no telling when yours will get heard and how long it can take to settle successfully.

What Is a Lawsuit Loan?

A lawsuit lawn is commonly referred to as a loan, but it does not work the same way traditional loans do. With traditional loans, you will need to apply for access to funding based on your credit approval and ability to pay the loan back through your income.

However, lawsuit loans are different. Instead, we base your approval on the likelihood that your personal injury, civil litigation, or insurance case will produce a financial recovery. Only when your attorney wins your case will you be expected to repay your lawsuit loan.

If your injury settlement falls through, you will not be required to pay back your legal funding. After everything you have been through, we believe applying for a lawsuit loan should be without risk.

What do I Need to Get a Lawsuit Loan?

There are only two things you need to get a personal injury slip-and-fall lawsuit loan, and neither of them involve your financial situation or credit score. You only need a case and a retained lawyer working on it.

Your lawyer will give us the information we need to make a lending decision. If we feel you have a strong case, we are prepared to offer you a loan fast. Sometimes you can get the money in as little as 24 hours!

Not all cases qualify, but because we do not perform a credit check, there is no risk to your credit for a failed application. It truly is risk-free for you to apply for a lawsuit loan.

Use Legal Funding for Virtually Anything

You can use legal funding for any expense you have. We want to give you the freedom to choose how you want to allocate your cash. You can use legal funding to pay off:

• Rent or mortgage payments
• Property damages
• Medical expenses
• Groceries, utilities, and other living expenses
• Assisted living services
• School or tuition fees

Any expenses you have, you can pay them off on time with litigation financing for a slip and fall injury lawsuit. By reducing your financial worries now, your lawyer will have more time to pursue your case.

Legal Funding Can Prevent Insurance Company Harassment

Insurance companies are not on your side. They are businesses with agendas that protect their own interests. What they often do is delay negotiations or drag out how long it takes to settle to increase the amount of economic stress you’re under after your accident. They know that the longer they take, the more likely you are to settle on their terms.

You can stop the insurance companies from exploiting your financial situation and harassing you. Legal funding stops that tactic by giving you the money you need to outlast their strategy. You can afford to wait long because you have the funds to do so. Legal funding essentially doubles as a shield to increase your bargaining power for the best settlement possible.
