Workplace Injury Pre-Settlement Funding

Injured on the job due to a third party's negligence? Pre-settlement funding can help bridge the financial gap that workers' compensation alone cannot cover.

Typical Funding Range: $5,000 — $500,000

What Is Workplace Injury Funding?

Workplace injuries can be devastating, and while workers' compensation provides some benefits, it often falls far short of covering the true costs. When a workplace injury is caused by a third party — such as a subcontractor, equipment manufacturer, or property owner — you may have a personal injury lawsuit in addition to your workers' comp claim. This third-party lawsuit is what qualifies for pre-settlement funding. Common scenarios include construction site accidents caused by another contractor's negligence, defective equipment injuries where the manufacturer is liable, and injuries on another company's property. Pre-settlement funding helps cover the gap between what workers' comp pays and what you actually need.

Common Injuries in Workplace Injury Cases

Falls from heights (scaffolding, roofs, ladders)
Equipment malfunction injuries
Electrocution and burn injuries
Repetitive stress injuries
Toxic exposure and chemical injuries
Crushing injuries from heavy machinery
Traumatic brain injuries from falling objects

Why Do Workplace Injury Victims Need Pre-Settlement Funding?

Workers' compensation benefits are limited — they typically cover only a portion of lost wages and medical bills. They do not cover pain and suffering, full lost earnings, or future earning capacity. When you have a third-party claim alongside workers' comp, the personal injury lawsuit can take years to resolve. Pre-settlement funding bridges this gap, covering living expenses that workers' comp does not fully address while your attorney pursues the third-party case.

Typical Case Timeline

Third-party workplace injury claims typically take 18 months to 3 years to resolve. Cases involving multiple parties or OSHA investigations may take longer. Funding approval takes 24 to 48 hours.

FAQ

Workplace Injury Funding Questions

Can I get funding if I'm only receiving workers' comp?

Pre-settlement funding requires a personal injury lawsuit, not just a workers' comp claim. However, if a third party (not your employer) was responsible for your injury, you may have both a workers' comp claim and a third-party lawsuit that qualifies for funding.

Will the workers' comp lien reduce my funding amount?

Workers' comp liens are factored into our underwriting analysis. If you received workers' comp benefits, the insurer may have a lien on your third-party settlement. Our team accounts for this when determining your funding amount.

What types of workplace accidents qualify for third-party claims?

Common qualifying scenarios include construction site injuries caused by another contractor, defective equipment manufactured by a third party, injuries on another company's property, and motor vehicle accidents during work.

How much funding can I get for a workplace injury?

Typical workplace injury funding ranges from $5,000 to $500,000, depending on the severity of injuries, the strength of the third-party claim, and available insurance coverage.
