Understanding Georgia’s Slip and Fall Lawsuits

In Georgia, slip and fall accidents can happen anywhere—whether it’s a grocery store, a restaurant, or even a neighbor’s home. These accidents occur when someone slips, trips, or falls due to hazardous conditions on someone else’s property. If the property owner failed to maintain a safe environment, you may be entitled to compensation for your injuries. However, navigating a slip and fall lawsuit can be complex and challenging. It requires proving that the property owner was negligent in maintaining safe conditions, and this often involves gathering evidence and working with specialists to support your case.

One of the most important elements of a slip and fall case in Georgia is showing that the property owner either knew about the dangerous condition or should have known about it. For instance, if a spill occurred in a store and was left unattended for a significant period, you may be able to prove that the store failed to act responsibly to fix the problem. Your attorney will help you understand whether your case has merit and what steps need to be taken to build a strong claim.

The Challenges of Paying for Legal Help

One of the biggest concerns people face when they consider pursuing a slip and fall lawsuit is the cost. Legal fees, medical bills, and the financial strain caused by missed work can make it seem impossible to afford representation. At times, people are unsure whether they should even pursue a lawsuit if they can’t afford the upfront costs. This is where litigation funding can help.

Litigation funding is a financial solution that allows individuals to pursue a legal case without having to worry about paying for everything out of pocket. With litigation funding, you can get the financial support needed to cover the costs of your lawsuit while you focus on recovery. The funding is typically provided by third-party lenders who understand the challenges of legal battles and offer resources to ensure that you can continue your case without financial hardship.

- WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING -

In June, my wife and I asked our attorney about giving us a loan against any settlement proceeds from our case. He told us that the state bar does not
permit lawyers to participate in the financing of clients. The offer of settlement was very low so the case needed to be filed in court. I called Fast Funds. Within 24 hours, I had entered into an agreement with them, selling a very small portion of the anticipated proceeds to them in exchange for immediate financing. Now my suit is in court and I don't have to worry about money until it's outcome. Thank god for Fast Funds
B.G.
As a result of the advances you have made to our client, we were able to refuse an extremely low settlement offer and take the case to court. We settled the day of the trial for a very generous sum. Had there been no advances by Fast Funds, our client would have had no choice but to accept the inadequate offer since he was in severe debt due to his inability to work. Thank you for your helpful assistance in providing our client with the ability to persevere.

I was involved in an accident which took my left leg. I was forced to live homeless for eleven months. Thanks to the Fast Funds people advancing money. I now live in an apartment,I am walking on a prosthetic and otherwise getting my life back together, even though my attorney has not yet settled my lawsuit. I don't know what I would have done for money because the insurance company has offered nothing so far.
A.R.S.
I was involved in an auto accident which caused me to suffer a herniated disc. Because of this injury, I was forced to miss many months of work. I had no income and no place or person to turn to for money. My attorney told me he was unable to help with any financing and the insurance company was refusing to settle the case. I turned to a company called Fast funds. They immediately reviewed my file and took the financial pressure off by providing me with interim financing. I am now able to wait for as long as it takes for my lawyer to achieve a successful result in my case. Without the financial involvement of Fast Funds, I don't know what I would have done.
K.P.
I wanted to thank you for your sensitivity in helping me cope through a very difficult time in my life. Without your help, I would have been unable to pay my rent , forcing my wife and children to be put on the street. I have not been able to return to work and I was tempted to accept the insurance company's very low offer to settle, even though I knew it was not fair or reasonable. You have given me the ability to withstand the financial pressures. Thanks for your help. I will never forget it
C.S.
I have in the past referred clients to Fast Funds Inc., a non-recourse company. The experience of my clients
and my firm were totally positive. Fast Funds was responsive to the clients financial and emotional needs, provided the necessary emergency money and did not interfere in any manner with my handling of the cases. The clients, without my input, negotiated the advance directly with the company. In each case, they were completely satisfied with the final result of the case, including the amount of profit earned by Fast Funds. Non-recourse funding is clearly a valuable tool to the plaintiff's attorney.
M.J.L.
"I am writing to recommend the valuable assistance of the Fast Funds Inc., a company that provided interim funding to financially needy clients. They help to insure that a case will be brought to a successful resolution. A good case in point is when I was offered $75,000.00 for a seriously injured client. Had she not been able to take advantage of the advance financing offered by Fast Funds, I would have been forced to take the money. As it turned out, because my client now had the financial ability to withstand the pressures of time, I tried the case to a jury and received a verdict of $315,000.00.
M.S.D.
It is my belief that non-recourse companies, such as Fast Funds, the company to whom I refer my needy clients, perform an invaluable service to both the client and the attorney. Simply put, it is common knowledge that one of the tools negotiation utilized by insurance companies is time. Offering
considerably less money than the actual case value to a client in desperate need of funds while the case is pending, gives the insurance companies a tremendous advantage. This advantage is minimized and the playing field is leveled when the client has the ability to obtain funds for a minimal portion of the anticipated proceeds. Many times, with no prospects of income, an injured party will settle the case for whatever offer is made.

How Litigation Funding Works

Litigation funding works by providing a loan or advance against any potential settlement or award you may receive from your slip and fall case. This financial assistance can be used to cover various costs, including attorney fees, medical bills, court expenses, and other related costs. The beauty of litigation funding is that it comes with no upfront fees or interest during the course of your lawsuit. Instead, the lender will only be repaid if your case results in a successful settlement or judgment.

For individuals who are worried about the financial burden of a lawsuit, this can be a game-changer. It ensures that you don’t have to wait until the end of your case to get the help you need, and it allows you to focus on getting better while your legal team works to secure the best possible outcome.

The Benefits of Litigation Funding for Your Slip and Fall Case

One of the most significant benefits of litigation funding is that it enables you to take your case to court, even if you lack the resources to cover the upfront costs. Legal fees can be high, especially if your case goes to trial, and the process can take months or even years. With litigation funding, you don’t have to worry about running out of money before your case is resolved. This ensures that your legal team can focus on building the best possible case without having to worry about financial limitations.

Another important advantage of litigation funding is that it can provide you with peace of mind. When dealing with the aftermath of a slip and fall injury, your primary focus should be on healing and recovery. Litigation funding can reduce the stress of worrying about how to pay for medical bills or other expenses, allowing you to focus on what matters most. With this financial support, you can also feel confident knowing that you can pursue the full extent of your legal rights without settling for less than you deserve.

It is important to note that litigation funding is not available for every case. Funding companies evaluate the merits of your case before agreeing to provide assistance. They will look at factors such as the strength of your evidence, the likelihood of a favorable outcome, and the potential value of your claim. Your attorney will work closely with the litigation funding company to ensure that all the necessary information is provided and that you are able to secure the resources you need.
