Quick Answer

Can you get pre-settlement funding for a civil rights claim?

Potentially. FCA may review a pending civil rights claim when you have attorney representation and a potential monetary recovery. Funding decisions depend on the individual case, verified information from counsel and applicable requirements.

Civil rights claims can involve alleged violations of rights protected by federal or state law. A complaint alone does not establish eligibility, and not every claim qualifies for funding.

How pre-settlement funding differs from a personal loan.
