The Attorney Process

Partnering with Plaintiff Investment Funding: A Better Way to Support Your Clients

When a personal injury client faces financial strain, the pressure to accept a low settlement offer increases. As their attorney, you want to protect their case value—but you also understand their need for immediate relief.

At Plaintiff Investment Funding (PIF), we offer fast, non-recourse legal funding that helps your clients cover living expenses without compromising your legal strategy. And more importantly, we make it easy for attorneys to refer clients with confidence—knowing they’ll receive ethical, transparent, and professional service.

A Legal Funding Process Designed for Law Firms

We know your time is limited, and your reputation is on the line. That’s why we’ve built our process to be simple, hands-off, and attorney-friendly.

Here’s what happens when you refer a client to PIF:

The Client Applies (Online or by Phone)

We ask for basic case information and verify attorney representation. No credit checks. No employment verification. No financial disclosures.

We Contact Your Office

Our team reaches out to request limited documentation—typically a case summary, demand letter, or key medical records. We’ll work with your staff to keep this quick and easy.

Underwriting and Approval

Our legal funding experts review the case and issue a decision, often within a few hours. In most cases, approval is granted within 24 hours of receiving the necessary case information.

Funding and Attorney Acknowledgment

Once funding is approved, we send a straightforward acknowledgment form (similar to a lien) that confirms repayment will come from the client’s future settlement. You’ll receive a full payoff statement in advance, so everything is transparent and handled within your normal disbursement process.

Repayment Upon Settlement

There are no monthly payments or interest accrual. If the case is successful, the lien is repaid from the final settlement. If your client does not win, they owe nothing—as long as the agreement terms are met.

Why Attorneys Choose to Refer Clients to PIF

PIF is not just a funding source—we’re a partner that law firms can trust.

Here’s what makes us different:

Strictly Non-Recourse – Clients only repay if the case is successful. There’s no debt, no monthly payments, and no risk if they lose.
Clear, Capped Terms – No surprise fees or compounding interest. We cap our rates to avoid penalizing clients for extended litigation.
Attorney-First Ethics – We respect attorney-client privilege and never interfere in case management. Your strategy stays yours.
Real People, Real Support – We’re available 24/7—including weekends and holidays. Your client gets a real person, not a call center.
Flexible Support Options – We tailor funding to each client’s needs, helping with rent, groceries, medical bills, or relocation.
Nationwide Reach, Local Experience – We fund in 32 states, with deep knowledge of regional legal timelines and court systems.
Trusted Industry Standards – As a proud member of the American Legal Finance Association (ALFA), we follow best practices that protect both attorneys and plaintiffs.

Build a Lasting Partnership with Plaintiff Investment Funding

We’re proud to work with law firms across the country who want a better experience for their clients—and for their team.

By partnering with PIF, your firm gains:

A go-to funding partner who understands the nuances of personal injury and employment law

A referral process you can trust, backed by nearly 20 years of legal funding experience

Many attorneys refer clients to us again and again because we make their job easier—not harder. If you’re tired of dealing with funding companies that overreach, slow down your process, or burden your staff, it’s time to partner with a team that puts integrity first.
