Three Ways We Work With You

The case is resolved. The award, settlement, or fee is established. RD Legal funds against all three. Select the option that fits your situation.
For Attorneys
Attorney Funding

You negotiated the settlement. The fee has been earned. But court approvals, notice periods, appeals, or probate proceedings can delay payment by months, sometimes years. RD Legal advances your earned fees so delays do not become your cash flow problem or limit your next case.

For plaintiffs
Plaintiffs Funding

You won your case. Whether your award is held up in court approval, an appeal, or a structured payout schedule, RD Legal can advance against your settlement now. You do not have to wait.

For law firms
