What Karen does
We help provide lawsuit advances to our plaintiff clients.
These non-recourse advances relieve the financial stress that may cause a client to instruct their attorney to settle their case too early and for too little. In other words, we level the playing field for plaintiffs who find themselves up against well funded defendants who can go through a protracted litigation process.
We also help provide working capital to attorneys who work on a contingency fee basis.
What Karen does best
Our brokerage has developed relationships with major litigation investment companies. We know what type cases and what size cases these firms fund. Using our services saves you time and disappointment compared with the shotgun approach plaintiffs use on their own.
Most lawsuit advances are used to avoid foreclosure or eviction. We feel strongly that keeping a family together in their home is critical to building a strong community. Our clients feel supported by our empathetic and professional service.
What does Karen need?
I am formulating a marketing plan to reach plaintiff attorneys that incorporates social networking venues and would like to interview lawyers re their preferences. Can you introduce me to attorneys who would be willing to offer their advice in exchange for coffee and free cookies!?
