Quick Answer
What is railroad accident pre-settlement funding?
Railroad accident pre-settlement funding is non-recourse, case-based legal funding that may be available to qualifying represented claimants with pending civil injury claims arising from train, railroad crossing or other railroad-related accidents.
A railroad-related injury does not automatically establish a claim against a railroad company. Liability, causation, applicable law and available recovery depend on the facts. Your attorney evaluates the underlying claim; FCA evaluates funding eligibility.
