Medical Malpractice lawsuits are one of the most common lawsuit types in the United States of America. They also tend to be one of the longest lawsuits when it comes to trials. This is the main reason why most medical malpractice suits end up in a settlement agreement; which in turn results in a structured settlement. Many people don’t realize they have an option in a medical malpractice suit to obtain funds. If you’re currently in the middle of a pending medical malpractice lawsuit you can obtain a settlement loan instead of reaching an early settlement agreement; alternately if you’ve accepted a structured settlement plan you can receive a large sum payment.
A settlement loan is an excellent choice if your medical malpractice lawsuit is still pending. It allows you to receive a cash advance based on the merit and probability of winning your current suit. It allows you not only to pay any pending medical bills, it allows you to let your case’s trial go on till the end and not settlement for a lower amount that is rightfully due to you. In case you lose your lawsuit you don’t have to worry. You are not required to pay back the settlement loan if the case is lost! This makes a settlement loan a priority over a traditional loan in this case.
A structured settlement buyout is an excellent choice if you’ve settled your malpractice lawsuit or the trial has ended in a verdict of your choice. A structured settlement buyout is basically a company or investor giving you a large one sum payment in return for your structured settlement payments. This is usually around 60% to 70% of the actual structured settlement amount. This is a great choice for anyone who needs cash now to take care of financial issues or to perhaps buy a new home.
Either way, a settlement loan or a structured settlement buyout is an excellent way for someone to get access to the financial funds they need for any given situation. They are better alternatives than traditional loans since you’ll be stuck making monthly payments with interest on top of them. Consult with a financial advisor prior to accepting any agreements, whether it be a settlement loan or a structured settlement buyout.
