Frequently asked questions

Why would our firm use a disbursement funding provider? 

The primary reason law firms use a third-party funder is to improve cash flow for their business. Personal injury matters often run for years so as firms grow the cash flow pressures increase significantly. Partnering with a funder helps ease this pressure. 

Is there a limit on what my law firm can borrow?  

Yes, we will agree a limit up to which you can draw based on your firm’s needs. There is no charge for having the limit in place, you only pay interest on your drawn balance.  

Are there any restrictions on who we use for expert reports etc?  

No, we do not get involved with the selection of vendors, we just pay invoices. 

When are invoices paid? 

Invoices submitted through the online portal get paid the following day. The system generates a remittance advice, and these can be automatically sent out by us, or you can download and send yourself. 

Are there any compulsory repayments?  

A loan repayment is required when a matter is settled, lost/abandoned, or after four years.  

How do I know how much is repayable for a matter which is due to settle? 

You can see the accrued interest referable to each matter in the portal and can generate a settlement estimate for a future date which includes interest accruing up until that future date.  

Is there a write off allowance against unsuccessful or abandoned matters? 

Yes, you can use your write-off allowance to meet your repayment obligations (principal and interest) for failed or abandoned matters in lieu of paying cash.
