Do I need good credit to qualify?
No. We do not run credit checks. Pre-settlement funding is based on the strength of your case, not your credit score, employment, or income.

How much can I receive?
Sterling Heights plaintiffs typically receive between $500 and $30,000+ depending on the strength and expected value of their case. Our largest Macomb County advances have exceeded $30,000.
