Advocare Lawsuit Funds
Advocare Lawsuit Funding has a unique method of funding the costs of their clients’ litigation. They are a non profit organization, and all the money is donated by their donors to pay for their client’s legal representation.
Advocate is funded by private foundations and corporations. They receive a percentage of the proceeds from the sale of their cases to plaintiffs. Most of the proceeds go directly to their litigation and they have no overhead expenses, so they are not allowed to charge any processing or administration fees to their clients.

The process of obtaining funding for a case starts with an individual or corporation submitting an application to Advocate for funding. Once approved, they will then be expected to create and submit the appropriate documents to Advocate to support their case, such as copies of legal research and affidavits that support their claim. If there is a need to hire outside legal help or consultants to assist in the creation and preparation of the case, the funds will pay for this service as well.
The success of a case depends on the advocacy of its plaintiffs. Advocates can be very successful if they find the plaintiff is ready to fight for their case and that they are capable of defending their case.
Advocates do not receive a percentage of the settlement payments. However, some of the funds will go to defray the cost of attorney services, including travel expenses, case preparation costs, and any other out-of-pocket expenses that may occur. In addition, a percentage of the proceeds will also be given to the plaintiff’s lawyer.
A plaintiff seeking funding for a lawsuit should remember that some of the costs may be “expenses” for their case. For example, if they receive medical payments for their injuries, they will not be able to deduct them as a medical expense on their taxes. The same is true for items that cannot be purchased for a specific purpose, like a laptop or car. Some of these things may be considered expenses of the case.
As a result, the fund that you donate to a lawyer may be taxed. However, many lenders choose to tax only a portion of the total amount of their proceeds, which they distribute to the attorney at the time the lawsuit is filed. This ensures that most of the funds are tax deductible.
Funders typically review the case after receiving a payment to determine whether or not they should fund it. If the case is found worthy and if it merits a substantial amount of funds, they will provide the fund to the attorney without delay. If not, they will refer the case to another funder.
Funders must be careful to ensure their cases are supported by individuals who are willing to fight for their rights. If the case is unsuccessful or if the plaintiff decides to drop the case, the funds should not suffer a financial loss.
