May 19, 2012 began like any other Saturday morning for four employees of the Resolute Forest Products paper mill near the Catawba River. The three men and their supervisor were to work on a fiber line that soaks wood chips into pulp using sodium hydroxide. After soaking, the chips turn into a paper pulp which is used to make paper. But, after the overnight shift had some troubles with the pump, the morning crew decided to close the valves completely. Suddenly, one valve exploded burning the men. Wayne Vinson II was closest to the valve; the caustic solution blew up in his face leaving him blind. He suffered burns on 70% of his body and was in a medical induced coma for two months; the supervisor, Mitch Altman, was burned over 30% of his body. Both have been through several skin grafts. A year later, the emotional and physical scars remain. The two other employees were further from the rupture suffering minimal burns.

State investigators blamed the equipment for the incident. A report by the state Department of Labor, Licensing and Regulation after a months-long investigation found that “the valve sleeve inside the pinch valve failed.” A review of the incident showed both design and manufacturing flaws, according to a scientist hired by the labor department.

Vinson and two other victims have filed lawsuits against Flowrox Inc., valve manufacturer, and WACCO, Inc., the company that distributes the valves, claiming negligence and other wrongdoing, caused physical and financial harm. For Vinson, that harm is disfigurement and blindness. The lawsuits seek damages for the loss of ability to work, pain and suffering from the burns and disfigurement, and allegations of product liability malfeasance and negligence. The defendants deny all claims.

Although Resolute has been helping the families, including paying for Vinson’s family to stay at the burn center, the medical costs alone are exorbitant. It may be at least another year before a settlement is reached. For these victims, waiting for their deserved compensation may be a financial strain, leaving them in debt or risking their credit score. Lawsuit funding is a possible solution.

Any financial issues can largely be eliminated with lawsuit funding, a non-recourse cash advance against a pending claim. Because good credit and employment are not necessary, funding can be available within 24 hours of approval. Best of all, if the plaintiff loses, repayment is excused.

If recovering from your injuries is not only taking an emotional and physical toll, but a financial one as well, don’t let someone else’s negligence stop you from paying your bills. Lawsuit Financial may be able to provide you with the financial security you need. It’s fast and easy to apply online or by phone. Contact us today and see if we can help you.

More often than not, auto accident victims who are harmed through no fault of their own don’t realize they may be able to file a claim for damages. Instead, they settle with the insurance company, but don’t get what they deserve. This is why it is always worth consulting an experienced auto accident attorney to determine if the case is viable. Once represented by an attorney, plaintiffs can consult a legal funding company to help get back on their feet financially until the case settles.

Plaintiffs can benefit greatly with the help of lawsuit funding. Why? It takes approximately six months to a year to settle an auto accident claim. During this time, many innocent victims struggle to pay not only expenses – medical bills, car repairs - as a result of the accident, but also monthly expenses – mortgage or rent, utilities, groceries. If the plaintiff is unable to work, any savings will be quickly depleted.

If you are in an auto accident, time is against you and insurance companies are not your “good neighbor”. The combination of a skilled auto accident attorney and a legal funding expert on your side can level the playing field and help increase your chances of a favorable settlement.

It is challenging to wait for a case to settle especially when suffering financially. Insurance companies take advantage of this opportunity and drag out the case in an attempt to force plaintiffs to settle for less. This is why legal funding companies were established – to assist plaintiffs facing financial difficulties by providing a cash advance against a pending claim. With lawsuit funding, plaintiffs have the ability to achieve the highest possible lawsuit settlement and stronger position of negotiation.

It took five long years to settle a medical malpractice lawsuit resulting from a child being deprived of oxygen at birth. Medical negligence left the child with a severe permanent brain injury. Sadly, she only lived for a short time before succumbing to her fatal brain injury. The lawsuit revealed that not only did the nursing staff fail to adequately monitor the fetal heart strips and did not notice that the baby was in distress, needing immediate emergency medical intervention, but the nurse was in training and not adequately supervised.

If you have been plaintiff in a personal injury case, you may know how difficult it can be to pay the bills. If your ability to work is hindered by injuries, you may have found yourself unable to support your family. Did you know there is a service called pre-settlement funding that can help you in your financial time of need?

There are many instances of personal injury that happen every day. It could be the result of an auto accident, medical malpractice, slip and fall, dangerous or defective product. Seriously injured victims will file a lawsuit to seek justice as well as compensation to help pay for damages caused by negligence or a wrongful act. Unfortunately, a personal injury claim can take years to settle. For this reason, many plaintiffs avoid pursuing justice because they feel that they simply do not have the resources to fight against an insurance company.

Pre-settlement funding, a non-recourse cash advance provided to cash-strapped plaintiffs in a pending claim can help plaintiffs pay everyday necessities while their case works its way through the courts. For plaintiffs who are out of work due to their injuries, a lawsuit advance may be the only way to “buy” the time needed for a fair settlement offer.

Pre-settlement funding is based solely on the strength of a case, not on the credit strength of a plaintiff. When a plaintiff enters into a contract with a funding company, he/she promises to repay the advance from the proceeds of the settlement. If the plaintiff loses, the repayment is completely waived. Unlike a “loan”, there are no upfront fees or monthly payments, and the funding company does not evaluate an applicant’s credit worthiness or employment history.

Pre-settlement funding essentially frees plaintiffs from the financial worries that a lawsuit can cause, so he/she can fight the largely funded insurance company. If you are in need of fast cash during your pending lawsuit, contact Lawsuit Financial. With us, it is easy to apply online or by calling our office toll-free at 1-877-377-7848.
