Why Personal Injury Cases Take So Long, and How Pre-Settlement Funding Helps

When you’ve been injured and are working with a personal injury attorney, the waiting period before settlement can feel unbearable. Medical bills, lost wages, rent, and daily expenses don’t pause, even though your case is still being negotiated.

In this article, we break down why personal injury cases take so long and how pre-settlement funding from Courtway Capital can provide immediate financial support while your attorney builds your case.

Why Personal Injury Cases Move Slowly

1. Medical Treatment Takes Time
   Attorneys want you fully treated before negotiating, otherwise you risk settling for far less.

2. Insurance Companies Delay on Purpose
   Delaying is a strategy. They want plaintiffs desperate and willing to accept low offers.

3. Document Collection & Investigation
   Medical records, police reports, expert opinions, all of this takes weeks or months.

4. Negotiations and Counteroffers
   Most personal injury cases involve multiple rounds of offers before reaching a fair number.

How Pre-Settlement Funding Helps

Pre-settlement funding (sometimes called a “settlement advance”) gives plaintiffs access to a portion of their future settlement nowwhen they need it most.

• No credit check

• No job verification

• No monthly payments

• If your case loses, you owe nothing

This gives your attorney time to maximize your settlement instead of being pressured into accepting the first offer.
