Australia’s Leading Disbursement Funder For Personal Injury Claims!

Direct Disbursement Funding Loan

The Direct Disbursement Funding Loan product is a non-contract based loan, with payment of Personal Injury disbursements made directly to third-party providers.  

  • No client contract required
  • No credit or income checks
  • No property security required
  • Repayments not due until settlement of the claim
  • No early repayment penalties
  • No restrictions on medical report providers

 

The Direct Disbursement Funding Loan is ideally suited for almost any Personal Injury case, including those with multiple disbursements. With no minimum disbursement amount, Legal Funding Australia will provide funding at any stage during the claim’s progress. 

How it works

A Direct Disbursement Funding Loan allows direct payment to a third-party provider of various vital medical reports, valuations, expert reports, Court filing fees and other legal expenses, on behalf of a Claimant. This reduces the administration and trust accounting requirements for the Law Firm.

Pre-approved law firms

A Direct Disbursement Funding Loan is only available through pre-approved Law Firms whereby Legal Funding Australia and the Law Firm have an established Guarantee Agreement. This Guarantee Agreement makes the Law Firm a Guarantor of the Direct Disbursement Funding Loan.

We only work with Lawyers specialising in Personal Injury that pass our accreditation process.

Why a direct disbursement funding loan?

The Direct Disbursement Funding Loan has a fixed interest rate for the life of the loan.  

CONVENIENCE – The Law Firm provides Legal Funding Australia with a copy of the invoice, and we pay the third-party provider directly, on behalf of the Claimant. An advantage of the Direct Disbursement Funding Loan is that no loan contract is required. 

NON-RECOURSE – The loan is non-recourse to the Claimant which allows the Law Firm to continue to act on a ‘no-win-no-fee’ basis. If the case is unsuccessful, the Claimant is not required to pay back the loan (except in cases of fraud).

NO MONTHLY REPAYMENTS – A Direct Disbursement Funding Loan is not like a bank loan. There are no monthly repayments.
