Black Sheep Capital Group helps alleviate financial strain during a lawsuit by providing reliable, non recourse legal funding as you await your settlement. Our aim is to help plaintiffs and legal teams move forward with confidence.
Plaintiff legal funding is a cash advance that helps individuals cover essential expenses during a lawsuit. It is non-recourse legal funding, meaning you owe nothing if your case does not result in a favorable judgment.
Non-recourse legal funding is a cash advance that is repaid by the settlement awarded. In the event no settlement is awarded, no money is owed to Black Sheep. The financial risk does not fall on the plaintiff.
Legal funding with Black Sheep Capital Group is designed to be fast and stress-free. Submit your application with relevant case details and supporting documents. Our team will review your information and provide an update or decision within 24 hours. Once funding is approved and all parties have signed the funding agreement, the cash advance will be distributed.
Repayment is only contingent upon you winning your case, at which point your attorney facilitates monies from the settlement awarded being paid to Black Sheep.
Black Sheep Capital Group provides funding for an array of case types. This includes but is not limited to motor vehicle accidents, slip and fall, personal injury, civil rights, wrongful death, and medical malpractice cases.
Pre-settlement funding is a cash advance while you await the outcome of your lawsuit, helping you cover living or medical expenses while the legal process plays out. Post-settlement funding becomes available upon the resolution of your case, but before you have received the settlement.
You may be eligible for pre-settlement funding if you have an active legal claim and are represented by an attorney.
Yes, you must be represented by an attorney. We will work directly with your legal team to review your case and handle repayment from the settlement.
No, you do not need to have good credit to take out funding. Legal funding is not a personal loan. Rather, it’s an advance against the anticipated settlement from your lawsuit. This means there is no credit check or income verification required.
You do not make out-of-pocket payments for your funding. When your case is resolved, the settlement awarded will cover the amount borrowed plus accrued interest.
No. The IRS does not classify legal funding as income. Therefore, you will not owe taxes on the advance.
The sum of the funding advance is contingent upon details of the case and personal financial need. To determine the amount of the advance, Black Sheep will work with you and your lawyer to collect information regarding the legal claim and personal expenses.
You may use your legal funding on a variety of household and personal bills, including rent or mortgage, utilities, car payments, and more. Additionally, you may use your advance to pay medical bills, including transportation to-and-from doctors’ offices.
Yes. In addition to plaintiff funding, Black Sheep Capital Group offers commercial funding solutions for law firms and attorneys.
Law firm financing is a funding solution specifically for law firms and attorneys. It provides working capital to support operations, cover expenses, and fund the practice during contingency-based litigation.
Law firm financing functions similarly to a business loan but is tailored for legal-specific needs. It helps firms bridge cash flow gaps and cover expenses for contingency-fee case expenses before settlements are awarded.
We offer case cost expense funding to cover costs associated with litigation. This includes but is not limited to expert witnesses, court fees, and investigation expenses. Additionally, we provide general attorney funding. This is working capital for law firms, allowing them to leverage their portfolio to access funding necessary for growth.
