Pharmaceutical Lawsuits and Legal Finance:
Get the Money You Need ... Right When YOU Need It
A lawsuit cash advance (lawsuit loan, pre settlement funding or settlement loan) allows plaintiffs involved in class action and MDL - multi-district litigation immediate access to their lawsuit settlement money. Litigation financing gives attorneys & law firms the working capital to aggressively pursue each case.
TLF can offer lawsuit cash advances on more different types of defective drug & pharmaceutical class action lawsuits than any other lawsuit funding company in the United States!
TLF provides fast, easy and affordable lawsuit loans and lawsuit cash advances from $1,000 up to $100K – often in 24 to 72 hours for plaintiffs involved who are involved in pharmaceutical litigation and dangerous drug class action lawsuits.
Here are some of the pharmaceuticals and defective drugs we are currently funding cash advances on:
Accutane - Accutane (Isotretinoin) is used to treat severe nodular acne. Accutane can cause severe, life threatening birth defects if the mother takes the medication during pregnancy. Even one dose of Accutane can cause major birth defects of the baby's ears, eyes, face, skull, heart, and brain.
Bausch & Lomb - The contact lens solution, ReNu with MoistureLoc, has been linked to the blinding disease Fusarium Keratitis and the subsequent need for corneal transplants.
Baycol - Baycol (Cerivastatin) was withdrawn from the U.S. market in 2001. Baycol blocks the production of cholesterol in the body.
Bextra - Bextra (Valdecoxib) was withdrawn from the U.S. market in 2005. The manufacturer of Bextra has announced the voluntary withdrawal of the drug from the U.S. market. This withdrawal is due to safety concerns of an increased risk of cardiovascular events (including heart attack and stroke)
Celebrex - Celebrex (Celecoxib) is in a group of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It works by reducing hormones that cause inflammation and pain. Celebrex is used to treat pain or inflammation. Celebrex can increase the risk of life-threatening heart or circulation problems, including heart attack or stroke. This risk increases the longer someone uses Celebrex.
Ephedrine - Ephedrine is used to relieve congestion due to colds, flu, hay fever, and allergies, and for temporary relief of shortness of breath, chest tightness, and wheezing due to bronchial asthma.
Fen Phen - Fenfluramine (Phen-Fen) or dexfenfluramine (Redux) can cause a rare fatal lung disorder called pulmonary hypertension.
Fosamax - Fosamax is prescribed for the prevention and treatment of osteoporosis, the brittle bone disease, in postmenopausal women. It is also used to increase bone mass in men with osteoporosis, and is prescribed for both men and women who have developed a form of osteoporosis sometimes caused by steroid medications such as prednisone.
Gadolinium - Gadolinium is used as a component in contrast dyes for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). Recently, a number of Gadolinium lawsuits have been launched since the FDA has determined that Gadolinium containing contrast agents can cause Nephrogenic Systemic Fibrosis or Nephrogenic Fibrosing Dermopathy (NSF/NFD) in patients with kidney disease.
Take Your Legal Practice to the Next Level with TLF Litigation Funding Service
Face it. MDL (Multi District Litigation) and class action lawsuits against major pharmaceuticals can take a long, long, LONG time to settle. As a result, it's common for people who have been injured by dangerous drugs or defective pharmaceuticals to find themselves financially tapped out. A pre settlement cash advance can give plaintiffs the money they need to get their lives back on track now.
Guidant - The FDA has issued a Guidant heart device recall and we are funding cases for patients who have been injured by heart devices or who may be suffering side-effects from a guidant heart device.
Composix® Kugel® Mesh - Composix® Kugel® Mesh is used to repair ventral hernias, or hernias of the abdominal region. Specific lot numbers of Kugel Mesh are subject to a Class 1 recall by the FDA, the highest level of recall when the FDA believes a medical product is dangerous or defective and predictably could cause serious health problems or death.
Ortho Evra - Ortho Evra is a contraceptive skin patch. It contains estrogen and progestin, the same hormones found in many birth control pills. Fertility depends on regular fluctuations in the levels of these hormones.
Oxycontin - OxyContin is in a group of drugs called narcotic pain relievers. It is similar to morphine. OxyContin is used to treat moderate to severe pain.
Paxil(Death cases only) - Paxil (Paroxetine) is an antidepressant. It works by restoring the balance of serotonin,a natural substance in the brain. Paxil is used to treat depression, obsessive-compulsive disorder, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorder, and premenstrual dysphoric disorder. Paxil has been linked to increased risk of heart attack, stroke, sudden cardiac death and more.
Prempro - Prempro is used to treat the symptoms of menopause such as hot flashes, and vaginal dryness, burning, and irritation, and to prevent thinning of the bones (osteoporosis).
Seroquel - Seroquel (Quetiapine) is an antipsychotic medication. It works by changing the actions of chemicals in the brain. Seroquel is used to treat the symptoms of psychotic conditions such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder (manic depression).
Vioxx - Vioxx (Rofecoxib) was voluntarily withdrawn from the US and worldwide market in 2004 due to an increased risk of cardiovascular events including heart attack and stroke. Vioxx is in a class of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Vioxx works by reducing substances that cause inflammation, pain, and fever in the body.
Zyprexa - Zyprexa (Olanzapine) is an atypical antipsychotic medication. Exactly how it works is not known. It is thought to work by changing the actions of certain chemicals in the brain. Zyprexa is used to treat the symptoms of psychotic conditions such as schizophrenia and bipolar disorder (manic depression). Olanzapine may cause heart failure, sudden death and high blood sugar (hyperglycemia).
A pre settlement lawsuit cash advance can also help balance tough negotiations by giving your attorney the extra time needed to get the settlement you really deserve.
Lawsuit Loans and Litigation Financing is non recourse and 100% risk-free. If you lose or your case doesn't settle, you owe nothing.
