A Legacy of Innovation
RD Legal Funding, a pioneer in litigation finance, has been providing post-settlement funding to plaintiffs, their counsel and other litigation professionals to advance their fees and awards since 1998. Our fee acceleration solutions provide an alternative to conventional lenders that do not recognize legal receivables or rights to future legal fees as collateral, underscoring the need for specialized financial tools tailored to the legal sector.
The Cash Flow Problem
Law Firms Know This Scenario
You've secured a $2 million settlement for your client, but the insurance company won't pay for over 180 days. Meanwhile, you have payroll to meet, rent to pay, and new cases to fund. Your fee is literally tied up.
Plaintiffs Face It Too
After years of litigation, there is a settlement/ judgment. But the defendant is appealing, or the court approval process drags on, or the payout is structured over months or years while you need access to the award now.
Traditional Lenders Don't Get It
They see litigation receivables as "too risky" or "too complex." They want predictable monthly payments from predictable businesses, but that's not how justice works.
Deep Industry Expertise: Nearly three decades in legal finance. We evaluate receivables that traditional lenders don't understand.
Speed and Efficiency: We move at the pace of legal practice. Funding in days or weeks, not months.
Flexible Solutions: Custom financing structures tailored to your specific circumstances.
Non-Recourse Protection: We assume collection risk, protecting you if circumstances change.
No Credit Requirements: We evaluate the strength of your legal position, not your credit history.
