Wrongful Death
Estate claims typically involve a claim to entitlement of an asset in Probate court as the result of death (inheritance) or wrongful death (tort) claim. In both situations, probate laws typically define the right to make a claim based upon the degree of consanguinity to the deceased person.
Sex Crimes
Molestation is the crime of sexual acts with children up to the age of 18. Victims of molestation may sue in civil court the person who committed the abuse against them to recover damages for their injuries, including medical expenses, pain and suffering and loss of earning capacity. While these cases are difficult to litigate because of the emotional toll on the victim, damages awarded in molestation cases often are substantial.
Fraud
A class action lawsuit allows a large group of people with a common interest in a claim to join together to sue in one lawsuit. There must be questions of law or fact common to the group and plaintiffs must have suffered the same type of injury caused by the same defendant. If plaintiffs in a class action lawsuit succeed, they usually are awarded damages, and a court may also award punitive damages if it finds defendants’ acts were particularly harmful to the health or safety of plaintiffs. The most common class action cases that we fund are unpaid wages cases, including those pertaining to overtime. Whether you are part of an unpaid wages, consumer fraud, or many other types of claims, you may be eligible to receive an advance legal funding against your share of damages to be awarded in the future.

Business and Corporate Law

Business Disputes
Commercial litigation covers all business conflicts. This is more specific than Business Law which includes the drafting of contracts and agreements (the stuff that might someday lead to a dispute).

Workers Compensation
Wrongful Termination
Wrongful termination occurs when an employee is fired from a job unjustly. It is difficult to prove because most states have an “at-will” policy when it comes to employment, which means that either the employer or the employee may terminate employment at any time without consequence. Successful wrongful termination litigation usually involves proving the firing was because of discrimination (based on race, gender, age, national origin, religion or disability), retaliation or defamation of character. Damages awarded in such cases are determined by the difference between the likely compensation that the plaintiff would have earned but for the wrongful termination, and the likely compensation that the plaintiff can be expected to earn from alternate employment given the wrongful termination.
Employment Litigation
Cases that fall under the heading of Commercial Litigation include breaches of contract, class actions, ERISA, employment disputes, business dissolution, interference with business relationships, disputes over non-compete clauses, civil RICO, breach of fiduciary duty, franchise issues, shareholder issues, partnership disputes, debt collection and others.
Sexual Harassment
Sexual harassment in any State is unwelcome conduct that can occur in a variety of circumstances, the harasser can be the victim's supervisor, a supervisor in another department, a co-worker, a non-employee or a client. The victim does not have to be the opposite sex and the victim does not have to be the person harassed but simply one person or one of multiple persons affected by the offensive conduct. Previously, only someone who was a direct victim of sexual harassment could sue. However, the California Supreme Court recently decided that when sexual favoritism is frequent and obvious it may create a "hostile workplace" and be grounds for a lawsuit.

Premises Liability
Most premises liability cases are based on injuries occurring in commercial and residential buildings, healthcare facilities, or public schools. Generally, the law requires the owner or operator of the property to keep the premises in reasonably safe condition, or at least, to warn customers of a dangerous condition that the owner or operator caused, knows about or should know about. Under the premises liability laws of most states, it is necessary to determine the status of the plaintiff as either an invitee, a licensee, or as a trespasser, before determining the duty owed by the possessor of the premises. Generally, the plaintiff is to be reasonably compensated for all injuries and losses resulting from the occurrence in question.

Personal Injury
For more than 15 years, our operations center in Arizona has served as the command center of our pioneering efforts in nationwide legal financing industry. American Legal Funding specializes in providing non-recourse lawsuit funding to plaintiffs involved in litigation due to auto accidents, pharmaceutical and defective product injuries, and many other personal injury cases. In addition, we also provide attorney funding to assist law firms with marketing efforts or to simply maintain a successful practice.
Medical Malpractice
Medical malpractice occurs when doctors, hospitals, pharmacists or other health-care professionals injure a patient by providing care that is below the acceptable standard. A wide variety of situations may result in a medical malpractice claim, including failure of the medical professional to properly diagnose, improper treatment, and failure to warn of known risks. Litigation involving medical malpractice is complex, expensive and time-consuming, and many states limit the amount of money that can be awarded to a medical malpractice patient.
Dog Bites
Dog bite cases are usually a “strict liability” suit (meaning the plaintiff does not need to show the owner of the dog was negligent). To recover the plaintiff only needs to prove that an attack took place, and the dog was owned, maintained, or controlled by the defendant. There are very few defenses to a dog bite case. One defense available is that the bite was provoked by teasing the dog. Most homeowners insurance covers dog bites unless the dog is classified as a vicious breed.
