In a Workers Compensation Lawsuit? Need money NOW?

July 1, 2010

For 7 years now my office has been in existence to help you - the plaintiff of a workers compensation lawsuit get the money you need for bills, food, and other expenses while you wait for your settlement.

If your settlement is dragging and you need money now from your workers compensation lawsuit, you can get an advance that you do not have to pay back until the case settles. Not that it is likely, but if you lose you owe nothing - nada - zilch!

Be very careful who you get your advance from - not all companies are the best.

I will help you decide whether going through my office to get a lawsuit advance is going to help you achieve your desired outcome or not.

Isn’t that worth a phone call?

Call me now so I can help you get a workers compensation lawsuit advance at 214-628-0920.

This just in: I fund Pharmaceutical Negligence Cases!

June 29, 2010

This was sent to me from my funding source last week:

I’m writing a quick note to share that we have some good news. In addition to the pharmaceutical cases we can already underwrite (Accutane, Baycol, Fen Phen, HRT, Ortho Evra, Paxil, Prempro, Vioxx and Zyprexa, as well as asbestos/mesothelioma cases), we are adding Avandia to the list of reviewable cases.

Along with the application, we simply need a retainer agreement, the face page of the complaint (or whole complaint if it’s easier to obtain), and what the health-related issue is caused by the Avandia. Also, if the case submitted is in the first group, we would need the settlement letter.

Call me to get started at 214-628-0920!

“Presettlement Funding is Scary.”

June 16, 2010

This is a popular viewpoint among plaintiffs who have a personal injury lawsuit and are waiting on a settlement but need money NOW for bills, food, mortgage, etc.

But is it TRUE?

It is true if you have called one of THOSE companies. Those companies are the ones you see on TV. Those presettlement funding companies are the ones who when you called them just tried to corral you into giving them information for their application. Those companies are the ones who want their questions answered but try not to answer your questions of “how much are your rates” etc. Those are the companies whose employees when they answer the phone sound miserable or sound like a robot.Those companies have the viewpoint of “they are desperate so they will wait for their lawsuit advance” so they take their time - YOUR TIME. They also think “they are desperate so they will not mind this high rate” knowing that you will sign their contract.

That IS scary isn’t it?

Ever wondered if it could be different?

I am not sure I want to get a lawsuit cash advance!

May 13, 2010

Being certain is definitely step 1.

I am always interested to learn more about why people say this. What I have found is that when someone is looking for a lawsuit cash advance loan, they are really concerned with one thing - TRUST.

This is why I have worked so hard over the years to maintain my relationships with my law firms. When they tell their client to use Rob Thomas Legal Funding, the client sees and feels the trust of the recommendation. I don’t hear the phrase, “I am not sure I want to get a lawsuit cash advance” much; but when I do I really pour on the education.

One of the things that you stand to lose by doing business with another broker OR lawsuit funding source is that they typically tell you only what they THINK you want to know. This usually adds up to them giving you the interest rates on their lawsuit advances and not much more. They also have the “they are desperate so they will stick with me” attitude. The way you will know this is what they think is that they try and corral you into doing an application and hurrying off of the phone with you.

You can’t and shouldn’t trust people who either try and keep you in mystery about how presettlement funding works or those who don’t communicate effectively by taking the time to educate you on lawsuit funding.

My clients always understand everything BEFORE we move forward.

They are CERTAIN they want to get a lawsuit cash advance and that they want to use a broker.

Are you next?

This just in from Holliday Bomhoff and Karatinos:

From Tonya, one of the paralegals:

WONDERFUL SERVICE!!!!

My funding source and I got this case approved WITHIN 30 minutes of receiving the documents. This is one reason why firms should use brokers.

I prefer to work with law firms who refer me clients, let me tell you why…

December 25, 2009

For 5 years I have always wanted to help as many people as possible.

Lately, I am finding that trying to build a nationwide presence doing what I do is frustrating and very low pay.

I have found that most law firms do not send documents that are needed to get the case evaluated because the plaintiff - maybe this is also you, has applied to 15 different companies. This sucks for everyone when this happens. For the plaintiff, they have exposed their risk to getting the worst deal and they are essentially telling the universe, “I will take any offer, hurry!” It sucks for the paralegal because he or she send out the same documents to 15 different people who have different requests when she didn’t even want to do 1 of them. It sucks for the attorney because they have to have 15 different conversations for 1 plaintiff. It sucks for the funders because they all do the work and only one gets paid.

I have been receiving referral from many firms since 2004. After my recent experience of trying to “get it all” by going nationwide and receiving leads from the biggest rainmaker on the internet, I have decided that I like working with referrals from law firms only.

The documents arrive within 24 hrs of receiving the referral. The plaintiff already knows they are getting the best deal and great service so they are patient and ALLOW me to do what I do best. They are always happy and so are the firms that regularly use me otherwise they wouldn’t recommend me.

Does your law firm need a trustworthy source to make sure their clients get serviced and not ripped off?

I am very open to meeting new firms looking to have that ONE guy do the work.

What do you stand to LOSE by using another company?

September 10, 2009

I’ve always found that people are not only motivated by what they stand to win, but also what they stand to lose.

In fact I’d say the motivation NOT TO LOSE is the stronger of the two.

I will treat you like a person who needs help, but I will not exploit that. In fact, I know that you needed the money the day BEFORE you called me. I will constantly communicate with you. This means whatever movement there is - you will know about it. You will know the rates and how the whole transaction works before we even get started. It is important to me that you know what you are doing, this gives you control. None of my clients have complained about how much they owe at settlement because I do so much educating on the front end. My rates have actually lowered for the 1st time in 5 years! If you choose another company the interest could eat up more of your settlement. This leaves you LESS money in your pocket later. Finally, I will not advance you too much money based on the facts of your case which also leaves you more money at settlement.

Choose another company and you lose everything listed above. Don’t take my word for it, read my testimonials which are real people in the Tampa Bay area. One of my clients is a paralegal who refers me her clients.

Ready to get started? Call me at 214-628-0920.

Feeling regretful of the company you chose for your Lawsuit Loan, Lawsuit Cash Advance, Settlement Advance?

July 30, 2009

Let me guess. You tried and tried to hold out but the bills kept coming in. You thought maybe your settlement would come in faster. You borrowed from family members. You depleted your savings. You took odd jobs. You starved yourself. You cut back on basic purchases. You told the kids no AGAIN and they are mad at you. You can’t go back to work because not only have you been directed to stay home by the lawyer but also the doctor. No one will hire you because you are now damaged goods and a screaming workman’s compensation liability waiting to happen.

Then one day in all of your frustration, you saw an ad on tv, or was it the Thrifty Nickel? The Flyer? The Greensheet? Was it one of those free papers? And let me guess again, all the ads basically said the same thing. You couldn’t tell them apart and maybe if you took the time to call them all they might be the same person or funding company? The TV showed someone who is trustworthy telling you that an advance on your settlement is one phone call away. CASH IN 24 HRS! Could this be real? Is there really a way out of this hell hole that the personal injury lawsuit has put me through?

In your curiosity you call the number and immediately a person on the other end begins the interrogation. They are asking you for your personal data. You answer all of their questions because the pain of what you are going through has pushed you to the point that you are willing to do anything within reason to get some money now to ease your pain. They now tell you a different time line than what the ad says. But you are desperate so you hang on out of faith. A week goes by. They don’t call to update you. You call them and keep getting different people. “Why is this happening” you ask yourself? Am I being scammed? Should I have done this? Why didn’t my attorney tell me about this? Why is it taking so long? You start to panic even more.

You finally get the answer from one of the people at the funding company: “Your attorney isn’t cooperating”. Out of anger and desperation you call your attorney who doesn’t take your call. You scream at the paralegal instead. Week 3 arrives and they finally are getting somewhere! You get your lawsuit cash advance but before you do you look at the contract and the rates are different than what they told it would be!! You look at year 2 or 3 at the amount you would have to pay back and you get sick at your stomach that people could charge so much and not go to jail! You feel sick but at least are closer to the money now. Your problems in life will be delayed by this. You will have temporary relief or at least until your case settles.

BUT, after all of the frustration, suffering, pain, upset, anguish, rejection, family arguments over money, low morale, fighting with your attorney, etc. you submit and say “SCREW IT”! You sign it and get your money. You feel even sicker. None of it felt right.

Then you read a blog like mine and wonder if any of that could have been different.

If you want to find out, call me at the number at the top of the page.

I believe in radical transparency!

July 27, 2009

Whomever said “what you don’t know can’t hurt you” wanted you to get hurt. In business as in personal matters it is not true. I have always said that the more you know the more control you have.

Look at the other lawsuit loan funders. Do they have real pictures on there or something that the web designer used? Do you feel that you know them by visiting their website? Does it make you say, “I can trust this guy/gal”? Do they tell all regarding rates and what you actually have to do to get the lawsuit loan? Are they real in their time estimates?

Rob Thomas Legal Funding STANDS on the virtue of transparency. Here you will be assured that you are dealing with a real person (view website pic, that is ME). You will have all of the info you need to gain control over the process (visit my blog). You will be given real time estimates rather than the CASH IN 24 hrs BS that the lawsuit loan funding companies so proudly lie about just to get you in their trap.

There is a reason I have survived 100% off of referrals and web business rather than advertising. I feel it is because of the above. Want to find out from personal experience what it is like to let me serve you? Call the number above and let’s get started!
