There are no ethical issues in Virginia with regards to attorneys advising their clients to apply for pre-settlement funding, as highlighted by state legislation. Please note however that there are some concerns that include the question of whether an attorney is able to provide the necessary guidance to their clients. When it comes to third party funding, there is also concern with regards to the legality of the contract, as there is the possibility of a conflict of interest between the plaintiff and third-party funding.
Adequate proof that the attorney is in good standing with regards to the plaintiff’s litigation shall be required. It is also required by Virginia Rules of Professional Conduct that it’s insisted by attorneys that they any third-party litigation funders shall not attempt to control their professional judgement, as it’s been noted that funding influence could cause clients to settle their case at less than the actual value.
Amounts of cash advances must be clearly outlined by third party funders, as is an itemization of one-time fees, the total amount that will need to be repaid (in 6 month intervals – carried forward to 36 months), the rate of return or percentage fee. The plaintiffs must be able to cancel their arrangement within five business days of receiving funding. There can be no penalty or further obligation, and this must be reflected in the contract. The plaintiff’s attorney must confirm that they have thoroughly reviewed the terms and explained them all to their client – and this must be reflected in the contract.

Virginia Personal Injury Law: How Does it Affect Legal Funding?
In the state of Virginia, the statute of limitations for personal injury cases is 2 years from the initial date of injury. You must file a lawsuit against those responsible by that time. If a case isn’t filed within this timeline, it is very unlikely that the court system in Virginia will be willing to hear the case, and the right to compensation will thereby be lost.
It is important to note that there are differing guidelines for plaintiffs who suffer personal injury and wish to file a suit against the state of Virginia, the deadline is 18 months. For a city, town or county in Virginia, you have 6 months to file your complaint. It’s very important to be aware of the statute of limitations that applies to your personal injury situation. There are various guidelines that must be adhered to, so retaining an attorney immediately after being injured is necessary to help ensure a successful outcome.
There are some states that follow a lighter version of the fault law, however, it is important to not that the state of Virginia does not follow this example, and still adheres to the pure contributory negligence rule. What this means, is that the person you wish to file suit against must be 100% at fault or you will be unable to collect any monetary damages.
Also important to note is that personal injury compensation is determined by a number of factors that include the following; insult, pain, humiliation, injury to reputation, mental suffering, medical bills, lost wages, property damage, etc. This will be determined on a case by case basis, based on all relevant information that is applicable.
Virginia is a no-fault car insurance state, so this means that compensation options have the potential to be limited if the plaintiff is injured in a car accident. What this means for the plaintiff, is that they will, usually exclusively, look first to their own car insurance policy. This is how they can expect to receive compensation for damages. When the plaintiff has been in an accident that causes serious and/or permanent injury, particularly injury that results in permanent limitations to bodily functions, mobility, etc, this may make the plaintiff eligible to qualify for a personal injury suit or a liability claim against the driver responsible for these injuries. This changes the games with regards to the case, and gives the plaintiff the ability to pursue compensation for all loss categories which are not available in a no-fault claim.

Virginia State Lawsuit Funding FAQs
How do I know if I qualify for a pre-settlement loan in Virginia?
If you have sustained any personal injuries due to the negligence of another person or entity, you qualify for lawsuit funding. If you are someone who has sustained serious injuries in Virginia, you are entitled to apply. Applications are absolutely free and they’re easy to complete.
Would Funds Be Considered Cash Advance Or Lawsuit Loan?
It wouldn’t be accurate to view this as a cash advance. These would be better viewed as lawsuit loans that basically act as cash advances against the final decision on your lawsuit settlement. It’s a cash advance that you pay back, so it is a loan. What makes this funding different from a loan though, is that if you don’t win your settlement, Rapid Lawsuit Funding does not require that you pay back the funds you’ve received. The only clients that we collect from are clients who have won their case or obtained their settlement.
Are There Specific Ways I Need To Spend My Funding?
It doesn’t matter how you choose to spend the funds, although it is recommended that the funds go towards debts, rent, medical bills, and the like.
