Hedge funds are putting up money for lawsuit funding companies, according to the news article in the NY Times today.

Lawsuit funding companies get funding from many different sources. Some are backed by major banks, other by venture capital, and some apparently by hedge funds.

Injury Funds Now is backed by private investors. When applying for lawsuit funding, you should make sure that the funding company has the money in place to send your advance out right away and also has funds in place for future advances. There are many brokers out there that market themselves as a funding company, and they don't have any source of funds, other than going out to major funding companies and trying to broker the cases out.

Another good question to ask the funding company is if they have an minimums or maximums. Injury Funds Now does not have any minums or maximums, and we fund every case with our own funds. Funding cases in house also ensures the confidentiality that is so critical, as well as provides clients with expedited services.
